Today, I would like to speak about Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal is located in Agra. It was built in the year 1682 by the great Mughal King Shah Jahan. And I personally like this monument because it was built by Shah Jahan as a remembrance for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. It took about 12 years to build this beautiful monument, and about 20,000 workers were engaged in its making. This is one of the greatest tourist attractions in India, with about 5,000,000 people visiting the Taj Mahal every year. The major attraction of this monument is that it is built on the river banks of Yamuna, with gardens covering three sides of the monument. The building was constructed using precious stones and white marble, making it very attractive. I personally like this building because it was a gift from Shah Jahan to his beloved wife. Additionally, its visual appearance is stunning, with the white marble structure appearing to float over the Yamuna River. Another great attraction is its unique architectural design. I have also heard that there are many optical tricks associated with it, which become apparent when you get closer to it.
