Taj Mahal Tour is a magic woven on white marble. Erected on the banks of Yamuna, Taj Mahal bears testimony of 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.

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

For 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 attractions - 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.

Architect and Designer of Taj Mahal - Though Taj Mahal is considered the most splendid example of Mughal architecture, yet the identity of the Architect of Taj Mahal is shrouded in mystery.

It is assumed that Shah Jahan had a major role to play in the designing of Taj Mahal. It is a big possibility that in his obsession for absolute perfection, Shah Jahan could not trust anybody else with this mammoth task.

He himself chose to personally supervise the transformation of his dream into reality. Many historians corroborate the fact that Shah Jahan had an interest in architecture and had substantial knowledge about architectural designs and decorations.

Taj mahal attractions, But it would be too much to assume that the principal Taj Mahal architect was the Mughal Emperor himself. Such a grand piece of architecture has a professional and skilled architect behind its construction, not a mere connoisseur of art or an amateur architect.
