Stop 3
We have specifically included Mehtab Bagh in the end as to give travelers another glimpse of Taj at the time of sunset. The view of The Taj Mahal from here is surreal, where you can white Taj in saffron lit twilight sky, and the magnificent reflection of Taj in the Yamuna river. Considered to be the site for the Black Taj Mahal, whose construction never saw the light of the day due to rift in the Royal Family, later it was converted to the gardens, this is the last garden of the Mughal era in Agra.

The Sheroes here, are women who have fought to survive after receiving a debilitating blow to their appearance and self-esteem by some members of the society. These women are on the way to becoming true fighters, who have the courage to live, work, and walk in the midst of society and force the society to reevaluate its norms about beauty and appearance. Unlike any other café or a general restaurant, this one is going to be solely run by the acid attack survivors. These acid attack survivors come from various backgrounds and diverse level of competences. Being unprivileged some of them perhaps have never been to a restaurant before. The model has to be projected in a way that can benefit the concerned acid attack survivor to the most possible extent. Hence to transform these acid attack survivors into successfully empowered earning women makes them an individual cult of inspiration among other survivors to be seen as “Sheroes” which sounds empowering in a strong positive connotation.
