The centuries old symbol of love, the tomb that at times is unanimous with India – there are so many places to see in Taj Mahal! Among the places to visit in Taj Mahal are the outlying buildings such as the Great Gate and the Taj Mahal mosque. These are the major Taj Mahal tourist attractions apart from the tomb that is numero uno among the tourist attractions in UP and India. Taj Mahal sightseeing could be undertaken with a number of Taj tours.
Of all the places to see in Taj Mahal the tomb is the cynosure of all eyes – not only in India but the world over. This tomb had been built using pristine white marble in approximately 21 years from 1632 to about 1653. It is the expression of the pure love that Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor, had for Mumtaj Mahal.
The Darwaza-i-rauza or the Great gate is the entrance to the Taj Mahal. It has been built using marble and its architectural style reminds one of the architectural approaches that were used by the predecessors of Shah Jahan. Its walls feature elaborate work as well as passages from the Holy Quran. The interiors of the Taj Mahal are exquisite to say the least and should not be missed at any cost.
