Taj Mahal, India


About Taj Mahal


Located in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India, on the Yamuna River's right bank, stands the ivory-white marble mausoleum known as the Taj Mahal. The fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, ordered it built in 1631 to contain both his own mausoleum and the tomb of Mumtaz Mahal, his adored wife.
