the love of a King for his Queen.
The building of Taj
Mahal was commissioned by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan
as a tribute to the memory of his beloved second wife,
Mumtaz Mahal.
When Shah Jahan commanded the construction
of Taj Mahal in 1631, he was fulfilling a promise that
he had made to Mumtaz Mahal.

took 22 years. A combined workforce of 20,000 people
was deployed in the building of this structure.

those not in the know, it might be a matter of much
astonishment that even in those days Taj Mahal cost
the exchequer 32 million rupees.
A red sandstone forms
the edifice of this grand monument. The main structure
is flanked by four graceful minarets.
The mausoleum
is an exquisite piece of art and the embellishments
are done with a number of precious and semi-precious
stones.
Taj Mahal continues to enthrall people by its
captivating beauty and stands as the time-defying symbol
of enduring love.
As the sacred Yamuna gently flows down the erstwhile bastion of the mighty Mughal Empire, Agra, the sun seems to strike a harmonious cord as its rays caresses the land. It is said that even the moon shines the brightest in Agra. Because, in Agra, there's a 'heavenly body' that shines with the eternal essence of love - the mesmerising TAJ MAHAL.
A local Muslim architect, Ustad Ahmad Lahori, designed this supreme temple of love set amongst the serene ambience of a well laid out garden.
