Taj Mahal Agra . India

The Taj Mahal was built 350 years ago by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan as a place to bury his deceased wife. In Agra, India, it is proudly hailed as a great monument to the power of love.

FACTS :
1) It took 22 years for the Taj Mahal to be completed.
2) A huge labor force of 20,000 workers led by Muhammed Hanif, the head of the masons and the Persian architect Ustad Isa or Ustad Ahmad Lahauri, were employed in its construction.
3)Finished in 1648, the Taj Mahal cost the Mughal exchequer 32 million rupees.
4)It is said, that after the completion of the construction, when emperor Shah Jahan viewed the Taj, he ordered his men to cut off the right hand of the master architect Ustad Isa, so the later may not be able to erect such a stately and imposing edifice again in his life.
There's another legend that says Shah Jahan was contemplating to build yet another Taj Mahal across the river in black marble.
