Hey Dolls;

How are you guys? I am extremly sorry fpr posting such a late blog, been super duper busy with Job Interviews, This is something which i hate most, giving interviews.. tough task

Last year we could plan anything with parents, so thought to go for one day trip, So we all decided to go to Agra and see TAJ MAHAL. So want to share my experience, though it was my first trip to see TAJ MAHAL.

that's me and my sis..;)



Its a magnificient monument in white marble with historical love story attached to it. Basically this depicts fusion of Indian and Mughal architecture.  This memorial monument made by emperor Shah Jahan for his beloved third wife Mumtaz, an example of how deepey a man loved his wife. He made sure that her memory would never fade away. 

Construction of TAJ MAHAL started in 1631, and it took approx 22years to build this monument. It made use of 22000 labourers and 1000 elephants. The monument was built entirely out of white marble, which was brought in from all over India and  Central Asia. Total expenditure occured approx 32 million rupees (approx US $68000), finally completed in the year of 1653


Despite prevailing contoversies, past and present threats, this epitome of love continuous to shine and attract people from all over the world

Well could not click much pictures because it was tooo much crowded , weekend it was.. may be thats why.
But it was one memorable moment i cant forget...Loved it and would visit again

Sorry for such a long post but just wanted to share my wonderful experience with you guys.
