The Taj Mahal meaning "Crown of the Palace" is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the south bank of the Yamuna river in the Indian city of Agra. It was commissioned in 1632 by the Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan (reigned from 1628 to 1658), to house the tomb of his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Construction of the mausoleum was essentially completed in 1643 but work continued on other phases of the project for another 10 years. The Taj Mahal complex is believed to have been completed in its entirety in 1653 at a cost estimated at the time to be around 32 million rupees, which in 2015 would be approximately 52.8 billion rupees (U.S. $827 million).
The Taj Mahal is regarded by many as the best example of Mughal architecture and a symbol of India's rich history. The Taj Mahal attracts 7-8 million visitors a year. In 2007, it was declared a winner of the New 7 Wonders of the World (2000-2007) initiative.

5.00I was in India for my wedding and decided to do a day tour of Agra sightseeing with friends before the wedding. We visited Taj Mahal, Agra Fort & Mini Taj Mahal with a knowledgeable guide. It was the perfect tour. It was a great mix of historical monuments. This was my 1st time booking tours through him. Ravi took care of all our drivers, tour guides and local sightseeings. He was awesome. Super responsive any time I had any questions and always available while we were in Agra. He is professional and driver speaks very good English. It was very helpful for me and my friends. Thums Up
