Trip Info
Learn the beautiful love story behind the Taj Mahal, the royal Mughal King Shah Jahan and his passionate love for his wife Mumtaz. The Taj Mahal is a complete white marble mosque-like structure filled with memories and immortal love of a king and queen. To this day, the emperor and his queen lay side by side beneath the Taj Mahal in their tombs.
The Taj Mahal is located in North India and attracts millions of international and domestic travelers from all across the globe.
