delhi to agra one day tour package.A Taj Mahal journey is the highlight of any India itinerary. Often referred to as being the most stunning building in the world in terms of its beauty, the Taj is visible in the Agra blur of haze, like a beautiful apparition. The intricately-carved archways, the magnificent white marble pillars, and the lush greenery on riverbanks of Yamuna river are certain to make you swoon even the most hard-to-please travelers.
The Taj is India's most famous monument . It was constructed to be a monument by Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved third wife Mumtaz Mahal who passed away in pregnancy. It's not a church or mausoleum, it is a mausoleum. The Taj required years and the support of 20,000 people to build. It was tragically, once it was finished, the Shah was overthrown by his son, who sentenced him for the rest of his existence in prison, while staring at his masterpiece out of his prison window in Agra. After his death the Shah was laid to rest alongside Mumtaz to be buried in the Taj. Today, millions go to the Taj every year.
