If you are on vacation to India, apart from a visit to Kashmir, then you should not forget to visit the Taj Mahal, a monument of love. 


 This beautiful monument is built by the Emperor Shah Jahan between 1632 and 1648 as a mausoleum for his second wife Mumtaz Mahal, who sadly died in 1631, giving birth to their 14th child. In her dying breath, Mumtaz Mahal urged Shah Jahan to build a mausoleum for her, more beautiful than any the world had ever seen.

Taj Mahal is one of the Seven Wonders of the modern world and an enduring Indian icon.

Taj Mahal is the finest existing example of Mughal architecture. It combines intricate Persian, Turkish, Indian and Islamic styles to devastating effect and seems to appear as immaculate today as when it was first constructed.  

Inside the Great Moghul and his wife are buried side by side and the interior walls and floors are decorated with flowered mosaics, black marble and semi precious stones. Taj Mahal is one of the world's 'must see' sites. Let's go to India and holiday in Taj Mahal.
