The tourist place of Taj Mahal


Lovers visiting lovely place
The wonderful Taj Mahal is in Agra. This historical monument is in a good location. The monument is a bank of Yamuna River. It was built by the Muslim King Sha Jahan. The Muslim King Auranszeb held his father Sha Jahan imprisoned here. Shah Jahan was able to look across the bend of the river to the Taj Mahal.

Building construction
Sha Jahan started to build the mausoleum in 1632 for his beloved wife. Queen Arjamand Babnu Begum, one of whose titles was Mumtaz. It took 20 years to be completed.
Art and Architecture
The chief architecture is said to have been Ustad Isa (an Iranian) and Italian, Voerrones is said to have prepared plants and estimates. Made of pure white marble stone from Jaipur, the mausoleum stands in the middle of a building on a square platform. All round the building at a considerable height from floor level, are inlaid on the white marble walls, in black marble and in the large Nashk Talik script, verses from the Quran; so skilfully and with such a true sense of perspective and mathematical accuracy has this been done that the upper reaches of the characters are in perfect proportion and size compared with the lowest.
Now this Taj Mahal beauty going to damage way by the effecting of factories.

Visit Beautiful queen Jodhabai palace and other places


Building constructions and the architecture
Akbar established a new capital at Fatehpur Sikri, about 36 km. From Agra. This city was known for its magnificent Mughal monuments built in red – stone. Notable among them were the Diwan -i – khas. Panch – Mahal, Jodha – bai’s palace, Ibadat – Khana Buland – Darwaza. Akbar also built massive forts and palaces at Agra. He encourged the art of painting and established royal workshops, were painters from different parts of the empire gathered and worked.
 Jodha Bai
The most impressive buildings built by Akbar are to be found at Fatehpur Sikri which remained the imperial capital from 1569 to 1584. the construction of the new capital at Sikri, near the place where Babur defeated Rana Sanga, started in 1569 and took six – seven years to complete. It was built in honour of the famous Sufi saint, Salim Chishti. It is an example of a Mughal walled city with private and public buildings and imposing gateways.
The architecture at Fatehpur Sikri reflects a new impetus to the movement towards the fusion of the Islamic (Turko – Afghan and Central Asian) features with the local architectural tradition that began during the Sultanate period. Among examples we may mention the brackets in Jodha Bai's palace and the imitations of wood carving in the surface decorations, both of which were inspired by the building tradition of Gujarat. The decorative carving in the Turkish Sultana's (Mariam Zamani Begum) house even show some Chinese influence in the description of clouds.
