India 🇮🇳, Taj Mahal

The Taj Mahal is the most famous landmark of the country, located in Agra, on the banks of the Jamna River. The Taj Mahal is an incomparable ensemble consisting of a mausoleum palace, a mosque, a main gate, a guest house and a landscape park with an irrigation system. This complex was built by Padishah Shah Jahan as a last tribute to his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. 
 
The story of love and happy family life of a noble couple lasted 18 years. During this time, Mumtaz Mahal gave her husband 13 children, but she could not survive the birth of the 14th child. 
 
After the death of his wife, Shah Jahan spent a whole year in seclusion, aged and stooped during this time. In order to pay the last tribute to the love of Mumtaz Mahal, the Padishah decided to build a mausoleum palace, which has never been and will never be equal on Earth.
