It is considered one of the most beautiful buildings in the world and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1632 and was completed in 1653, employing thousands of artisans and craftsmen. The monument's architectural style combines elements from Persian, Islamic, and Indian architectural styles, creating a masterpiece of symmetry and balance. The main mausoleum is flanked by four minarets and is set amidst a large garden with reflecting pools, adding to its charm and grandeur. The interior of the Taj Mahal is equally breathtaking, with intricate carvings, inlay work using precious and semi-precious stones, and beautiful calligraphy from the Quran.

4. Itmad-ud-Daulah, located in Agra, India, is a Mughal mausoleum often described as a "jewel box" or the "Baby Taj." It was commissioned by Nur Jahan, the wife of Jahangir, for her father Mirza Ghiyas Beg, who was given the title "Itmad-ud-Daulah," which translates to "Pillar of the State." Construction of the tomb began in 1622 and was completed in 1628. It is considered a precursor to the Taj Mahal due to its intricate marble work and delicate carvings, which are considered some of the finest examples of Mughal architecture from that period. Itmad-ud-Daulah is also significant as the first Mughal structure in India to be built entirely of marble. You can either visit Itmad-Ud-Daulah Tomb or Agra Fort.

About New Delhi

New Delhi forener Indiens hovedstads statelige alléer med Gamle Delhis basarer og mogulmonumenter, en by af lag på lag af imperier og fantastisk mad.

Den planlagte hovedstad har sit centrum i en stor ceremoniel allé, der løber fra Indiens Port til Rashtrapati Bhavan, præsidentpaladset. I nærheden ligger Humayuns Grav, en forløber for Taj Mahal, i formelle haver, og i syd rejser Qutub Minar sig, en tårnhøj minaret af sandsten. Lotustemplet og det enorme Akshardham-kompleks er slående moderne vartegn.
