TAJ

constructed by Mughal emperor
Shah Jahan as a memorial to his
queen MumtazMahal
and was made out of white marble

Taj is at its best to witness. Over the centuries, the Taj has attracted more
visitors than perhaps any other Monuments in the country, and it is all too
easy resort to conventional superlatives when describing it. What makes the Taj
unique is its perfect proportions, distinct femininity, medium of construction
and ornamentation. Its marble exterior reflects rose and golden tints at
sunrise and sunset, while it is dazzling white during the day and glows like a
pearl in the moonlight and during the monsoon.
