See the Iconic Taj Mahal

If there is anything as spectacular as the Taj Mahal, it is the legend surrounding its creation. The story holds that Emperor Shah Jahan was so distraught when his third wife died that he ordered the construction of the glorious Taj Mahal to be built in her honor. The Emperor's wife, Mumtaz Mahal, died during childbirth. After more than a decade, Mumtaz Mahal's mausoleum was completed, and the stunning outbuildings and gardens were completed five years after that. The site, which is widely considered one of the most beautiful in the world, is based, then, on eternal love. And what a monument to love it is.
