The landmark story

The Taj Mahal is a white marble mausoleum on the bank of the Yamuna in Agra, commissioned in 1631 by Shah Jahan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal, who is buried there with him. The tomb was completed in 1648 and stands at the centre of a 17-hectare complex of gardens, a mosque and a guest house.
