Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful and costly tombs of the world has found place among the seven wonders of the world and people from all corners of the world come here to visit this memorable complex.
TAJ MAHAL among the seven wonders of the world, is a tomb constructed on the Southern edge of the River Yamuna in Agra, India. It was built by the Mughal king Shah Jahan in the loving remembrance of his spouse Mumtaz Mahal whose actual given name was Arjumand Banu Begum. She passed away while giving birth to a child in Bhuranpur on 1631 AD. They married each other in 1612 AD and the structure was intended to be constructed in 1632 AD.
 
Numerous men from different parts of the world like India, Persia, Central Asia and even outside the continent were brought for the construction. More than 20,000 people were working day after day to finish the intricate mausoleum at the cost of approximately 40,000,000 rupees. One of the most beautiful and costly tombs of the world has found place among the seven wonders of the world and people from all corners of the world come here to visit this memorable complex.        

Islamic structural design, in its best form, is personified by the Mughal monarch Shah Jahan's Taj Mahal. In his direction, the work started in 1634 and it took almost 22 years to complete this memorable structure. The Taj is surrounded by gardens along with the springs and decorative trees. The last resting place of Mumtaz Mahal is sheathed in white marble that is ornamented with unblemished carvings and different design of flowers and inscription cut from valuable gems. Just under the dome in a faintly lighted hall lie the ruins of Shah Jahan and dearly loved wife, queen Mumtaz Mahal, striking a chord to the world of their never-ending love. It relaxes on a stage of red sandstone. At every corner of the raised area rests a lean prayer tower. Every tower is nearly 135 feet tall. The structure is 186 square feet. Preaching from the Muslim sacred manuscript, Quran, beautify the exterior.

Constructed in attractive vicinity, the Taj Mahal is one of the most striking architectural workings on the earth. Undoubtedly, the Taj Mahal positions in the midst of the most ideal constructions in the world, impeccably in proportion, constructed completely out of marble. Planned to be a tribute of the reminiscence of Shah Jahan's adored wife, in actuality it is his endowment to the complete human race.

The tomb Taj Mahal has succeeded in attaining tremendous admiration almost from the time of the creation. The attractiveness not only is in its parts but also in the exquisiteness that is felt when seen from every position near the complex. The marble exterior reflects incessantly sunlight throughout the daytime. All the possessions of the monarch were used into the creation of this complex which ultimately finds a place among the seven wonders of the world.
