Dream of the Taj


As the afternoon fog began to roll in, theTaj Mahal was cast in a dreamy light. The Taj Mahal is truly a wonderous sight. Photographs can not do it justice The Taj Mahal is a masoleum and memorial that was built in Agra, India by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died during the birth of their fourteenth child. Contruction took place from about 1632 until approximately 1653, employing about twenty thousand workers. It was built out of marble with semiprecious stones inlaid as decoration. The central dome has a diameter of 58 feet and rises to 213 feet.
