A monument located in Agra, India, constructed between 1631 and 1654, considered one of the finest examples of Mughal architecture in the world
a beautiful building made of white marble (=a type of smooth, hard rock) in Agra, northern India, built as a mausoleum (=a building containing a grave) for his wife by the emperor Shah Jahan in the 17th century. It is one of the world's most famous buildings, and is visited by many tourists. Mausoleum complex on the southern bank of the Yamuna River, outside Agra, India. It was built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahn in memory of his wife, Mumtz Maal, who died in 1631. The Taj complex, begun 1632, took 22 years to complete. At its centre lies a square garden area bounded by two smaller, oblong sections, one comprising the mausoleum and the other an entrance gateway. The mausoleum, of pure-white marble inlaid with semiprecious stones, is flanked by two red sandstone buildings, a mosque on one side and an identical building for aesthetic balance on the other. It stands on a high marble plinth with a minaret at each corner. It has four identical facades, each with a massive central arch 108 ft (33 m) high, and is surmounted by a bulbous double dome and four domed kiosks. Its interior, with fine, restrained stone decoration, centres on an octagonal chamber containing the marble tombs, enclosed by a perforated marble screen, with sarcophagi below. Regarded as one of the world's most beautiful buildings, it was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983. Steps have been taken since the late 1990s to reduce air pollution that has damaged the facade of the building
