The structure built in India as a mausoleum for a Mughal emperor's wife is the Taj Mahal. Commissioned by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died in childbirth, the Taj Mahal is a stunning example of Mughal architecture, combining elements of Persian, Islamic, and Indian styles. Construction began in 1632 and took about 22 years to complete, culminating in its completion in 1653. The Taj Mahal is renowned for its exquisite beauty, with its iconic white marble dome, intricate carvings, and lush gardens. It stands today as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is often regarded as a symbol of love.
