Construction of Taj Mahal took as long as 22 years and it required around 20000 workers to work intensively on it to make the Emperor's dream come true. The majestic structure stands on an elevated platform, square in size, which forms a somewhat unequal octagon. The colossal Palace has complex geometrical patterns imbibed into its designs. The making of Taj Mahal includes some intricate and complicated principles like that of self-replicating geometry. The main central dome is a huge one and there are four more domes enclosing the main one. There are four tall minarets on the four sides. The entire building has delicate designs made on it, which are stuffed with precious stones and gems.
The Taj overlooks a well decorated garden and with the river Jamuna flowing by it, the Taj Mahal is indeed the crowning glory of India. It is in true sense the 'Taj' of India. Everyday millions of people throng this place of historical importance to savor the essence of Love Personified. Like Kubla Khan's Perfect Dome, the Taj Mahal will always be an out-of-the-world-pleasure for all people on earth.
