The
Taj Mahal is one of the world's acknowledged wonders. Its
construction began in 1632 and was complete by the middle
of the seventeenth century. Though the name of its architect
remains a mystery, the inspiration was essentially that
of the Mogal emperor Shah Jahan who employed 20,000 men
to labours for twenty two
years to fulfill his dream of building for his queen. The
finest mausoleum every created by man.
The
story behind the Taj Mahal is a poignant one. Mumtaz Mahal,
Shah Jahan's queen and constant companion for nineteen years,
even in battle, died giving birth to their fourteenth child
in June 1631. It was said that for two years Shah Jahan
lived the life of one in mourning.
Ancient
records refer to the material used such as white marble
from Makrana and precious and semi precious stones for the
inlay work such as lapis lazuli and sapphires from Lanka,
carnelian from Baghdad, Turquoise from Tibet, agate from
Yemen, coral from Arabia and many more………
A memorable visit to a monument whose sprit no photograph
can quite capture.
