Taj Mahal was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, in the memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Apart from being a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Taj Mahal is one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
The name Taj Mahal, with Taj meaning Crown and Mahal meaning Palace, literally means ‘Crown Palace’.
The construction work on Taj Mahal was started in the year 1632 and carried on for the next 16 years, ending in 1648.
It is believed that 20,000 workmen, who worked on a daily basis, were involved in the construction of Taj Mahal.
