DESCRIPTION: The Taj Mahal is located in Northern
India, on the Jumna River. It is considered one of the most beautiful
buildings in the world and the finest example of the late style of Indian
Islamic architecture. The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan ordered it built after
the death (1629) of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The entire complex,
with gardens, gateway structures, and mosque, was completed in 1643. The
building is in a perfect state of preservation. Set in its carefully laid
out grounds, it is a reflection of the gardens of Paradise to which the
faithful ascend.
