Taj Mahal, a mausoleum in Agra, India, regarded as one of the most
beautiful buildings in the world. The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan had it built
in memory of his wife, Arjumand Banu Bagam, known as Mumtaz Mahal
(Persian for "Elect of the Palace"), who died in 1631.

Building commenced about 1632. The mausoleum was complete by
about 1643 and the surrounding complex of buildings and gardens was
complete by about 1653. Situated on the southern bank of the Yamuna
River, the white marble mausoleum is composed of four identical facades,
each containing a large central arch 33 m (108 ft) high. A large bulb-shaped

dome, over 73 m (240 ft) tall, rises over the center, with four smaller domes
surrounding it. The building is raised on a square podium with a minaret at 
each corner. It is flanked by two red sandstone buildings-a mosque and its
replica, the Jawab (Answer), a building of which the main function is visual 
balance. Visitors approach the Taj Mahal through an imposing red sandstone
gate, decorated with inscriptions from the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an
(Koran). The gate and accompanying walls also contain a vast, geometrically
laid out garden, 305 m (1,002 ft) on each side. The enclosed garden, itself a
Muslim symbol of paradise, is centered on a large, raised pool. Canals divide
it into four equal parts, each containing flower beds, fountains, and cypress
trees (symbols of death).
