Akbar's Reforms and the Taj Mahal

The Taj Mahal is a stunning white marble mausoleum built in Agra, India by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan as a tribute to his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.

Ustad Isa Khan, a skilled architect, designed the Taj Mahal, carefully crafting its intricate details and proportions.

The Taj Mahal is strategically positioned on a raised platform, elevating its grandeur and providing a panoramic view.

Four tall minarets, placed at each corner of the platform, flank the main structure, creating a sense of balance and symmetry.

The Taj Mahal is famed for its exquisite decorations, including intricate floral designs made using semi-precious stones, known as pietra dura. This technique adds a vibrant burst of color and texture to the white marble.
