Taj Mahal A monument of love. A
symbol of eternal love. Taj Mahal, one of the most fabulous
monuments in the world, history and time. Thronged by visitors
year round, Taj Mahal is 200 km from Delhi. It was built by
the fifth Mughal emperor Shahjahan, in memory of his beloved
wife Mumtaz. The monument is a perfect piece of architecture.
It took 22 years, 41 million rupees, 50 kilos of gold and
around 20,000 workers to complete this marvel of marble.
Situated by the river Yamuna, Taj Mahal sits on a high red
sandstone terrace, topped by marble terrace. It is flanked by
four minarets. The jewel in-laid cenotaph of the empress lies
within the dome. The entire mausoleum is decorated with inlaid
design of flowers and calligraphy with semi precious stones
like jasper and agate. One can take a train, either the
Shatabdi or Taj Express.

It is situated on the
banks of the Yamuna, in Uttar Pradesh, and is one of the most
important pilgrimage centers in India. Mathura is famous for

after which it was abandoned, probably due to the lack of
water. The capital is amazingly beautiful with its palaces and

this day, the entrance to the fort is through the road that
Akbar built. The road leads to the Buland Darwaza, a huge 54
metres gateway. It later inspired other lofty gates. Today

earn money from the tourists.
