TAJ MAHAL - SOME SECRETS BEHIND IT


Hi friends i went to the great Taj Mahal --the symbol of love ,few days before. I want to share with you some cool news about it. The Taj mahal was built by the emporer Shah jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaj. The Taj mahal was named Mumtaj palace earlier and then called as the "Taj mahal".
The king Shahjahan earlier decided to build two Taj mahals ,one with white marble and the other one with black marble on both sides of the river Jamuna and also want to bulid a bridge made of gold to connect the two mahals. But after finishing the White Taj mahal (one among the seven wonders of the world) he was arrested by his son Aurangezeeb and so he failed to fulfill his dream. He bought Gold for 4600 crores at that time to paint some designs inside Tajmahal. (At that time one gram of gold costs less than a rupee). This is amazing right? If he could built the black Taj mahal ,then it will be the best wonder all over the world
