Taj Mahal trip

#asiatrip I moved from New Delhi and Jaipur to Agra and visited the long-awaited Taj Mahal. Bathed in sunlight, it stands tall, shining white against the blue sky. It is so beautiful that I feel as if I am in a dream or a story. A perfectly symmetrical white marble building. How on earth could it be constructed so meticulously? I salute all the people who were involved in its construction and those who have continued to protect it. The power of human beings is truly amazing. The tomb of Mumtaz Mahal, the wife of the fifth emperor Shah Jahan. The emperor, who was grieving the death of his wife, wanted to express his love, so he ordered marble from all over the world and gathered craftsmen to build it, which took 22 years and astronomical costs. It was completed in 1653. #indiatravel #backpacker #historicallandmarks
