54 Air Coolers to Bring Relief for Taj Visitors as Mercury Soars in Agra

The machines can reportedly reduce the ambient temperature by 7 to 10 degrees. The coolers have strategically been placed near book counters, entry-exit gates, check posts, colliders and also at the main mausoleum; white marble structure.

According to the officials, air coolers were being kept at a few locations at three prominent heritage sites—Agra Fort, Fatehpur Sikri, and Taj Mahal for the last couple years. However, this is for the first time that cooling devices have been put in use in bulk on the campus of the 17th century Mughal mausoleum.
