The Taj Mahal looks like a palace.But it is not a palace. It is a tomb.The Mughal Emperor Shahjajan loved his wife Mumtaz mahal dearly.When she died, he build the Taj to keep her memory alive.
The Taj Mahal stands on the river of yamuna, at Aagra. It is built in the middle of raised paltform. At the corner of the platform there are towers made of red stones. The main buildind is made of white marble.
The dome of the Taj is 275 feet high.It giltters in light, the walls of the Taj, are set with precious stones.The graves of the Queen and king lie side by side underground where we go by a flight of steps. Over the graves there are beautiful leaves and flowers made of coloured stone.
Round about the Taj Mahal there is a fine garden. Form the main gate to the Taj, there is a road. On both sides of the road. On both side of road there are beautiful Cypress trees. In the middle of the flower, beds there are fountain that play all the times.
The Taj is hundreds of years old, but it looks as it was made yesterday. In the light of the full moon it looks like a silver palace. People form all parts of the world come to India to see it. We Indian are proud of the Taj Mahal.
