TAJ MAHAL - SYMBOL OF LOVE! 💓

in #india5 years ago

Taj mahal situated in Agra, India is one of the most beautiful monument built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his third wife Mumtaz. It is one of the seven wonders of the world and it is attraction of tourists, people come from far away to see this beauty.

This is a pure white marble monument and is really beautiful. The architecture plan was so thoughtful that when you visit there you may notice that the four minars of taj Mahal are not properly perpendicular, like they are built tilting outside so that to save the monument in any emergency of natural calamities. Like if an earthquake occurs, the minars will fall outside not on the monument.

Being famous monument there are some hidden stories about it, idk how far they are true.

  • Shah Jahan ordered to cut off the hands of the workers who build the taj Mahal so that no one can even build such monument again.
  • there is a myth about the black taj Mahal to be made like a mirror image but it was never made , there is a long story behind it.
  • it is believed by many Hindus that the taj mahal is built on the place of lord Shiva temple.

The most loved pose for Indians to click a picture, which actually provokes tourists also to click a pic like this.

It's quite funny actually that you will see majority of people clicking pictures like this. Even people have their business over there, they click you picture and give it to you at that time only , they charge quite high. The picture is taken in the position like you are holding it from above.
