nicknamed Shah Jahan, and


his wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
It is said that the emperor loved
his wife so much that he built
the Taj Mahal after her death as
a testament to his love. The
temple houses the tomb of
Mumtaz Mahal.

It took about 20,000 workers


and 16 years to build the Taj
Mahal, which was completed
in 1648.
Legend has it that after
the work was completed,
Emperor Khurram
ordered that the main
architect, the Turk
Ustad Isa, have his right
hand cut off so that he
could never again design
a palace like the Taj
Mahal.
