Taj Mahal: facade light in October 2027
Short answer: On 15 October 2027: Sun on the main front (from the garden) 07:50–16:25, most frontal around 12:05. Every day of October is in the table.
The classic view from the garden looks north at the south front. From October to March the low sun lights that front all day. In summer the sun rises in the north-east and passes almost overhead, so the front only gets flat light around midday while the east and west sides take the morning and evening sun.
