    Emperor Shahjahan is well-known in history for pomp and splendour. He built many attractive
    monuments and magnificent buildings during his regime. The Taj Mahal in Agra on the bank of the
    Yamuna River is the greatest of all. It is one of the seven wonders in the world. Shahjahan built the
    Taj Mahal to preserve the memory of his beloved wife Mumtaj. He built it spending a great deal of
    royal wealth. Skilful artists and architects were employed for the construction of this great work in
    1642 and even choicest white marbles were brought from best parts inside and outside the country
    were brought for the work. Many visitors from home and abroad visit this beautiful spot to have a
    view of it and quench their thirst for aesthetics. The buildings have inspired many poets, painters
    and modern architects. The Taj Mahal is a living beauty in a moonlit night. During day it changes its
    colour from time to time. The shadow of the sky reflects on white marbles and changes its colour
    as well as mood. The poets describe it with many epithets such as „Love in marbles‟, „Cry of
