The Taj Mahal was built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who passed away.
It took about 22 years to build, starting in 1632 and finishing in 1653.
The Taj Mahal combines different architectural styles, including Persian and Indian designs, and is made of beautiful white marble.
The dome looks different in size depending on where you stand, creating interesting visual effects.
There is a long pool in front of the Taj Mahal that reflects its image, adding to its beauty.
The Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983, attracting millions of tourists each year.
It is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World due to its immense historical and architectural significance.
The monument has faced problems from pollution, leading to efforts to protect its marble and surroundings.
