View of the Taj Mahal from Agra Fort, a similar view Shah Jahan had when he was imprisoned here by his son, Aurangzeb.

Shah Jahan did have plans for a black version of the Taj Mahal on the other bank of the river Yamuna.

The Taj was finished in 1653 by the Moghul emperor Shah Jahan, an eternal monument and tomb to his wife Mumtaz Mahal.

With all the hype surrounding the Taj Mahal, it still continues to amaze all who see it.
