Taj Mahal (India)

Taj Mahal India

When I visited Taj Mahal India, What I saw there? The most beautiful building with garden, mosque. This beautiful building is built by Shah Jahan the 5th Mughal Empire.

UNESCO declared the Yamuna river ( it's situated in Agra) Wonders of the World, it's considered worlds heritage site.

It's my passion to explore Taj Mahal India from a long time, Mughal poets called this place as a heaven.

It is also considered a piece of of heaven by Mughal poets. You can't imagine it in real life. It's built between 1632 to 1653, Mughal architecture is the best achievement of the Mughal Emperors.


Taj Mahal (India)

When was the Taj Mahal built in India?

Breathtaking and iconic Taj Mahal is in India. 

Mumtaz was Shah Jahan's beloved wife and he built this palace after her  death. 

This architecture, is a great achievement, and a perfect combination of Indian, Turkish, Persian styles.

Mumtaz Mahal, was his third wife, died in 1631, (actually it is a mausoleum), this monument was created to save his love. 

He hired best architects, workers and artisans from across the empire. 

There is a vast garden paradise on earth. When you see its central structure, it's totally made of white marbles.

He wanted to create a specific place just like a palace when she died. Expenses were spent in millions. It's a symbol of eternal love.

What is the Taj Mahal?

Are you thinking about the name? why this Palace is called Taj Mahal? The meaning of Taj Mahal is Crown's Palace. Inside and outside of this Palace is amazing and cannot be described it's beauty in words. 

By looking at the central dome it represents heaven, while four minarets looks like corners of the earth.

It shows loyalty, devotion because, he was so depressed and heartbroken over her loss, So, this was a tribute after her death.

It was completely neglected for a long time (during British Rule), but the India allowed the visitors to start visiting this gorgeous site after it's maintenance, in the 20th century.

It's the flawless and ideal architectural harmony of Mughal and Hindu cultures.


The view of palace look more charismatic at night time. Mostly tourists visit New Delhi and Agra. You will find this Palace in the North in Agra India. The best time for visitors is winter, because the heat is intolerable.


The visitors have to follow the rules before travelling to Taj Mahal.


1). Wear a proper dress that cover your body.


2). Don't bring needless and irrelevant things.  


3). Don't throw the plastic bottles.


4). Mobile phone is allowable, but drones does not because, it is a public place.


This area is surrounding with foggy weather. Palace reflection in the water, greenery, flowers, cleanliness and the whole embellishment gives an amazing and breathtaking vibes.

The fountains looks like waterfalls in that pool. The lighting can amaze the visitors. In the morning it turned into pinkish colour, in the evening it colour comes into slightly blue-white or milky white, while in moon light the colour of Taj Mahal turned into golden. 

Every visit gives you a new look of this Palace. One more amazing thing i have notice here, that there are many types of stones, these aren't just stones, these are diamonds, pearls emeralds precious and semi precious stones were used.

Winter and Autumn are the best season to visit Agra. The good thing which i have notice is that it's closed on Friday because of Friday Prayer. During travelling or visiting any place some important things should be in mind, like try to avoid street food, eat healthy, better to eat fresh fruits and drink water and fresh juices. 

Hydrate yourself while travelling. If the weather is hot you must cover your head and apply sunscreen. The languages you have to speak there are Urdu, Hindi and English. So, communication isn't a difficult task.
