- Price: Low
The Taj Mahal, located on the banks of the Yamuna River in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, is one of the most beautiful monuments in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the 17th century in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, this white marble masterpiece stands as a timeless symbol of love and devotion.
Its construction began in 1632 and took over 22 years to complete, involving thousands of skilled artisans and craftsmen. The Taj Mahal’s beauty lies in its perfect symmetry, elegant domes, intricate carvings, and detailed inlay work using precious stones. As sunlight changes throughout the day, the marble surface glows in different shades — soft pink at dawn, milky white in the afternoon, and golden under moonlight.
Surrounded by lush Mughal gardens and reflecting pools, the Taj Mahal offers a serene and romantic atmosphere. Whether viewed at sunrise or sunset, its charm never fades. Visiting the Taj Mahal is not just about witnessing architectural brilliance — it’s about experiencing an emotion that defines eternal love and artistic excellence.
