As I live at Agra have visited the Taj a number of times. One of my
fathers friends and his family had come from Mumbai in last month my father
was busy I was sent with the guests a guide.
After buying our tickets we entered the main gate. The main building of
the Taj main building of the Taj stands on a high platform. There are four
minarets on four corners. In the centre of he tomb, there are two graves side by
side. One is of Mumtaj Mahal and other of Shahjahan. But they are not the real
ones. The real ones are down stairs just below them. They are richly and
beautifully engraved. In front of the building there is a cistern fully of water. A
canal sums almost from the gate to the main building. The Taj is a thing of beauty
in the full moon night is beyond description. The more we see it the more we
praise it.
