The Taj Mahal

Uploaded: May 01, 2006

Description

Built in the mid-1600s, the Taj Mahal is truly an architectural marvel, even at today's standards. It is constructed of carefully carved Indian marble and inlaid with semi-precious stones. This mausoleum and the surrounding gardens were designed and laid out with meticulous care and planning.

One of the highlights of my tour overseas was being able to visit this incredible masterpiece of human ingenuity.

They named a building in India after a 1960s rock star? How cool is that? #2715413
