The Taj Mahal is a mausoleum located in Agra, India. It was built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Taj Mahal is considered to be the finest example of Mughal architecture, a style that combines elements from Persian, Islamic and Indian architectural styles.
In
1983, the Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. While the
white domed marble mausoleum is the most familiar component of the Taj
Mahal, it is actually an integrated complex of structures. The
construction began around 1632 and was completed around 1653, employing
thousands of artisans and craftsmen.
The construction of the Taj Mahal was entrusted to a board of
architects under imperial supervision, including Abd ul-Karim Ma'mur
Khan, Makramat Khan, and Ustad Ahmad Lahauri. Lahauri is generally considered to be the principal designer.
