Day 7 Bharatpur and Agra
We visited the Taj Mahal, the incredible lacy white building built by Emperor Shahjehan in memory of his loving Mumtaz Mahal. Standing serene and awesome, on a raised marble platform, by the banks of the Yumuna, testifies to the timeless of art and love. It's pure white marble shimmers silver in the soft moonlight, exudes a pink glow at dawn, and at the close of the day, takes on a tawny, fiery hue of the majestic sun. Shahjahan built the monument in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal, the "lady of the Taj", who died at childbirth, her 14th child. It has been called the most extravagant monument ever built for the sake of love.
