Taj Mahal

"The Taj Mahal, built in the 17th century by the emperor Shah Jahan to honor the memory of his wife, is one of man's rare creations that is as awe-inspiring in reality as it is in the imagination."

"Stands at the end of a large, four-quartered garden, or charbagh, symbolizing paradise, extending about 1,000 feet in each direction from a small central pool...Taj Museum stands near the mosque"

"Every year, tourists numbering more than twice the population of Agra pass through its gates to catch a once-in-a-lifetime glimpse of what is widely considered the most beautiful building in the world" Full review

"The tale of love and loss that supposedly sparked the existence of the Taj Mahal...the design, execution, and end result is what truly makes the Taj Mahal a must-see. " Full review

"An obvious must-see when in Agra. It does get a little chaotic with all the tourists, but try and zone them out and take in the history and beauty of the place." Full review
