There is no other monument in the world that can match the beauty and grandeur of Taj Mahal . Set amongst the serene ambiance of a well laid out garden the massive marble structure of the Taj Mahal is awe-inspiring. Taj Mahal was built in the 17th century by Shahjahan- the fifth Mughal emperor, in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Shahjahan loved his wife so much that after she passed away in 1631, he decided to immortalize their love in the form of the Taj Mahal. It is more than 350 years since Taj Mahal was built, but it has not lost itsromantic aura, which attracts millions of visitors towards it It is because of this everlasting charm that the Taj Mahal can boast of being one of the most popular monuments on this planet. Almost all foreign dignitaries coming to India make it a point to visit Taj Mahal . The former president of USA, Bill Clinton has been one of the most prominent dignitaries to visit this monument in the recent past. He said 'The world is divided between those who have seen the Taj (Mahal) and those who have not. Very soon, I hope to be on the side that has seen the Taj (Mahal)', was how he felt, shortly after landing in India.
