Tajmahal History In Tamil: இந்தியாவில் நினைவுச் சின்னங்களில் தாஜ்மஹால் உலக அதிசயங்களில் ஒன்று. இந்த தாஜ்மஹால் டெல்லியில் உள்ள ஆக்ராவில் அமைந்துள்ளது. தாஜ்மஹால் முழுவதும் பளிங்கிக் கட்களால் ஆன கட்டிடம் ஆகும்.

ஆக்ரா யமுனை ஆற்றின் ஆற்றங்கரை ஓரம் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது. இந்த தாஜ்மஹால் காதலர்களின் சின்னமாக உலகம் முழுவதும் 7 உலக அதிசயங்களின் பட்டியலில் தாஜ்மஹாலும் சேர்க்கப்பட்டுள்ளன. இக்கட்டுடன் முகலாய மன்னரான ஷாஜகான் இறந்து போன தன் மனைவி மும்தாஜ் அவர்களுக்காக அவளின் நினைவுச் சின்னமாக இந்த தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது.

இக்கட்டிடம் 22 ஆயிரம் பணியாளர்களைக் கொண்டு ஆயிரத்து 631 முதல் 1654 ஆம் ஆண்டு வரை இடைப்பட்ட காலத்தில் இந்த கட்டிடம் கட்டி முடிக்கப்பட்டது.

தாஜ்மஹால் தோற்றம்:

Tajmahal History In Tamil: கிபி 1631 ஆம் ஆண்டில் முகலாயப் பேரரசு உயர்நிலையில் பேரரசை ஆண்ட ஷாஜகானின் மூன்றாவது மனைவி மும்தாஜ் அவர்களின் 14 வது பிள்ளையாக குகார பேகம் பிறந்த போது அப்போது இறந்து விட்டாள். இதனால் பெரும் துயரம் அடைந்த மன்னன் மும்தாஜ் அவர்களின் நினைவாக இந்த கட்டிடத்தை கட்டி தொடங்கினார். தாஜ்மஹாலின் முதன்மை கட்டிடம் 1648 இல் ஆண்டு கட்டி முடிக்கப்பட்டது.

அதன் பின்னர் சுற்றியுள்ள பூங்கா கட்டிடங்கள் ஆகியவற்றின் வேலைகள் ஐந்து ஆண்டுகள் கழித்து கட்டப்பட்டன. பேரரசின் ஷாஜகானே கட்டிடத்தை பற்றி கூறியதாக சொல்லப்படுகிறது. தாஜ்மஹாலில் பாரசீக கட்டிடக்கலை மரபுகளையும் முன்னைய முகலாய மரபுகளையும் உள்ளடக்கியும் அதனை மேலும் விரிவாக்கியும் இக்கட்டிடம் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது.

அதன் சிறப்பாக தைமூரின் சமாதி, ஹிமாயூன் சமாதி, ஷாஜகான் கட்டப்பட்ட டெல்லியில் உள்ள ஜமா மஸ்ஜித் ஆகிய கட்டிடங்கள் அமைந்தன. முன்னைய தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டிடங்கள் சிவப்பு நிற மணல் கற்களால் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது. ஷாஜகான் வெண்ணிற சலவை கற்கள் பயன்படுத்தி அவன் காலத்தில் கட்டிடங்கள் மிகவும் சிறந்த முறையில் கட்டி முடித்தன.

முகலாய மன்னர்களின் இந்த ஷாஜகான் மிகப்பெரிய மன்னராக பேசப்பட்டனர். இந்தியாவிலேயே அதிகப்படியான படைபலமும் பணபலமும் அதிகம் கொண்ட மன்னர் என்று சொன்னால் முகலாய மன்னர் என்ற பெருமை உண்டு.

அரசியல் ரீதியாக மற்ற நாடுகளுடன் போர் செய்யும் போது தன்னுடைய ஆட்சிக்கு எந்த ஒரு பிரச்சினையும் மந்திரம் கூடாது என்பதால் போர் செய்யக்கூடிய நாடுகளில் இருக்கும் இளவரசிகளை அவர்கள் திருமணம் செய்து கொண்டு சுலபமாக சண்டை முடித்துக் கொள்வார்கள். இதனால் ஷாஜகான் அரசியல் ரீதியாக பல திருமணம் செய்து கொண்டார் என்பதும் குறிப்பிடத்தக்க ஒரு விஷயம் ஆகும்.

ஷாஜகான் மும்தாஜின் வாழ்க்கை வரலாறு:

Tajmahal History In Tamil: மும்தாஜ் அவர்கள் ஷாஜகானுக்கு முதல் மனைவி கிடையாது அவர் மூன்றாவது மனைவியாகும். அவர் மும்தாஜ் திருமணம் செய்து கொண்ட பின்பும் ஷாஜகான் அவர் பல திருமணங்களை செய்து கொண்டாராம். எத்தனை திருமணங்கள் ஷாஜகான் செய்து இருந்தாலும் அவருக்கு உயிருக்கு உயிரான மனைவியாக காதலியாக நினைப்பது அவர் மும்தாஜை மட்டும் தான் அதிகமாக நேசித்தனர்.

பொதுவாக பெண்களுக்கு குழந்தை பிறந்து விட்டாலே கணவனுக்கு மனைவி மீது பாசம் போய் விடுவது என்பது பெண்கள் குற்றச்சாட்டு சொல்கின்றனர் ஒரு சில ஆண்களும் அப்படித்தான் இருக்கிறார்கள் ஆனால் ஷாஜகான் மும்தாஜ் சமுதாயத்துக்கு 14 குழந்தைகள் உள்ளன.

அத்தனை குழந்தைகள் பிறந்த போதும் திருமணம் செய்த போது இருந்த அதே காதல் அன்பு பாசம் ஆழமான காதலோடு நேசித்த மனைவிக்கு உலகமே அதிசயத்திற்கும் வகையில் கல்லறை கட்ட முடிகிறது என்றால்இவர்களின் காதல் உலக அதிசயங்கள் விட பேர அதிசயமானது . ஷாஜகான் அவர்களின் மூன்றாவது மனைவி மும்தாஜ் தனது 14 வது குழந்தை குகார பேகம் குழந்தை பிறந்த போது அவள் இறந்து விட்டாள்.

மும்தாஜ் இறந்த ஒரு வருடம் முழுக்க அவர் மன வேதனையும் துயரத்தையும் கஷ்டத்திலும் மூளியிருந்தன ஷாஜகானின் நரைமுடியிலும் வாடிய முகமே மனைவியின் மீதான பிரிவையும் காதலையும் உணர்த்தியது.

அப்படி ஒரு அன்பான அன்பு நிறைந்த காதலர்களின் வாழ்க்கை இந்தியாவிற்கே பெருமையாக இருக்கின்றது காதலின் மகத்துவமாக காட்சி தரும் தாஜ்மஹால் மும்தாஜின் அன்பும் பாசம் அந்தப் பேரன்பே ஷாஜகானை தாஜ்மஹாலை கட்ட வைத்தது.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் கட்டிடக்கலை:

Tajmahal History In Tamil: தாஜ்மஹாலின் மையம் வெண்ணிற சலவைகட்களான சமாதி கட்டிடம் ஆகும். இது சதுரமான தளம் ஒன்றின் மீது அமர்ந்து சமச்சீர்‌ வடிவம் கொண்டதாகும் வளைவு வடிவிலான நுழை வாயில் பெரிய குவிமாடம் உன்னதமான ஒரு கட்டிடம் பெரும்பாலும் முகலாய சமாதிகளை போலவே இதுவும் அடிப்படை கூறுகளும் பாரசீக கட்டிடக்கலை சார்ந்ததாகும்.

தாஜ்மஹால் அடிப்பது பல அறைகளைக் கொண்டு ஒரு அமைப்பு ஆகும். கட்டடத்தின் ஒவ்வொரு பக்கமும் 55 மீட்டர் நீளம் கொண்டு வடிவம் ஆகும். இந்த கட்டிடத்தின் வடிவமைப்பு எல்லா பக்கங்களும் சமச்சீர் ஆனது அடுத்தளத்தின் ஒவ்வொரு மூலைக்கும் நான்கு மினார்கள் அமைந்துள்ளனர். கட்டிடத்தில் முதன்மை இடத்தில் மும்தாஜின் ஷாஜகானின் போலியான அடக்க வேலைகள் வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன.

அவர்கள் இருவரையும் உண்மையாக அடக்கம் செய்த இடம் கீழ் தளத்தில் உள்ளது. இந்த கட்டிடத்தின் சலவைகள் குவிமடம் 35 மீட்டர் உயரம் கொண்டுள்ளது வெங்காயவிடம் கொண்ட குடிமாடும் 7 மீட்டர் உயரம் உள்ளே வடிவமான அமைப்பின் மீது உயர்த்திக் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது. தாஜ்மஹாலின் உச்சியில் தாமரை வடிவ போன்ற அமைப்பின் அழகான கலசம் காணப்படுகிறது. பாரசீக மற்றும் இந்து அம்சங்களை உடையதாக கட்டிடம் மேலும் உயர்த்தி காட்டுகிறது.

இக்கட்டிடத்தில் தாமரை கலசம் 1800 ஆம் ஆண்டு வரை தங்கத்தினால் ஆனதாக இருந்ததாகவும் அதன் பின்னர் வெண்கலத்துக்கு மாற்றப்பட்டதாகவும் சொல்லப்படுகின்றார்கள். இ கட்டிடத்தின் உச்சியில் இஸ்லாம் மதத்தை குறிக்கும் பிறை உள்ளது. பெரிய குவி மாடத்தை சுற்றிலும் நான்கு சிறிய குவிமாடங்கள் அங்கு உள்ளன. இதுவும் பெரிய குடிமகடத்தை போலவே வெங்காயம் வடிவம் கொண்டவை.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் அடித்தளத்தில் மூலைகளில் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ள மினார்கள் கோபுர அமைப்புகள் நான் ஒரு மீட்டர் உயரத்திற்கு எழுந்து நிற்கின்றது. இவை மரபு வழியாக இஸ்லாமிய மசூதிகளில் இருக்கும் தொழுகைக்காக மக்களை அழைப்பது போல் மினார்கள் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளன.

கீழே இருந்து மேலாக ஒழுங்கில் செல்லும் முரளி வடி அமைப்பை கொண்ட இதை ஒவ்வொன்றும் சுத்தி இடையில் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன. உப்பரிகைகள் அவற்றை மூன்று சம அளவு பகுதிகளாக பிரிக்கின்றன. இவற்றின் உச்சியில் ஒரு உப்பறியையும் அவற்றின் மேல் குவிமாடங்களுடன் கூடுபோண்டு அமைப்பதும் காணப்படுகின்றன.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் வெளிப்புற அழக்கூட்டல்:

தாஜ்மஹால் வெளிப்புற அழகு குடல் முகலாய கட்டிடக்கலை சேர்ந்த கட்டிடக்கலையில் ஒப்பிடும்போது மிகவும் சிறப்பு வாய்ந்ததாக இருக்கின்றது. கட்டிடத்தின் வெளிப்புற அழக் கூட்டல் சுண்ணாம்பு கலவை மற்றும் பல்ங்கி கற்கள் மூலம் செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளது.

நம் மனிதர்களின் உருவங்களையோ மற்றும் பிற விலங்கு உருவங்களையும் பயன்படுத்தக் கூடாது என்று தடை செய்துள்ளனர். வனப்பெழுத்துக்கள் சலவைக் கல்லில் சூரியகாந்த கற்கள் வைத்து தாஜ்மஹால் உருவாக்கப்பட்டவை.

தாஜ்மஹால் உட்புற அழகு கூட்டல்:

Tajmahal History In Tamil: தாஜ்மஹாலின் உட்புற அளவுகோல் மரபு வலிகளான அளவு ஓட்டலை தாண்டி மிக சிறப்பாக அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. இந்தப் பகுதியில் விலை உயர்ந்த இரத்தின கற்கள்,மாணிக்க கற்கள், பலவற்றை பதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன. உன் கூடத்தின் அமைப்பு என் கோண வடிவமைப்பிலானது.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் எல்லா பக்கங்களின் வாயில்கள் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன. எனினும் தெற்கு பக்கம் இருக்கும் பூங்காவின் நோக்கியுள்ள கதவு மட்டுமே எப்பொழுதும் பயன்பாட்டில் உள்ளது. உட்புறச் அவர்கள் மட்டுமே சுமார் 25 மீட்டர் உயரம் கொண்டதாக இருக்கும் இவற்றின் மேல் கூரை சூரிய உதயினால் அழகு ஊட்டப்பட்ட “போலிக்” குடவிமாடம் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் அழகு பூங்காக்கள்:

Tajmahal History In Tamil: தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டிடத் தொகுதி முன்னுரை மீட்டர் நீளமும் 300 மீட்டர் அகலமும் கொண்ட ஒரு முகலாய பூங்காவை சுற்றி அமைந்திருக்கிறது இங்கு இருக்கும் நடைபாதைகள் பூங்காவின் நான்கு பகுதிகளிலும் 16 பூம்படுகைகளாக பிரிக்கின்றன. தாஜ்மஹாலின் கட்டிடத்துக்கும் மற்றும் நுழைவாயிலுக்கும் இடைப்பகுதியில் ஒரு குளம் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.

நாம் வடகிழக்கு திசையில் நின்று பார்க்கும் பொழுது தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டிடத்தின் பிம்பம் அந்த குளத்தின் மீது தெரியுமாறு அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. பூங்காவின் மற்ற இடங்களில் மர வரிசைகளுடன் கூடிய பாதைகளும் செயற்கை நீரூற்றுகளும் இங்கு காணப்படுகின்றன. பாரசீக பூங்காக்களின் வடிவமைப்பை பின்பற்றி அமைக்கப்பட்ட முகலாயப் பூங்காக்கள் முகலாயப் பேரரசர் பாபரினால் இந்தியாவுக்கு அறிமுகம் கிடைத்தது.

இது நான்கு ஆறுகள் பாயும் இடத்தில் பூங்காவுக்கான ஒரு குறிப்பிட்ட வடிவம். முகலாய இஸ்லாமிய நூல்களில் சுவர்க்கம் என்பது மையத்தில் அமைந்துள்ள ஒரு ஊட்டியில் இருந்து நான்கு திசைகளும் பாயும் ஆறுகளைக் கொன்ட பூங்கா என்று கூறப்பட்டுள்ளது.

பெரும்பாலான முகலாய பூங்காக்கள் சதுர வடிவிலும் சமய அளவில் காட்சி கொடுத்தது அதன் மையப் பகுதியில் கொண்டதாக அமைத்திருப்பது வழக்கம். இந்த வழக்கத்துக்கு புறமாக தாஜ்மஹாலை சமாதி ஒரு பக்கத்தை விட்டு அமைந்துள்ளது யமுனை ஆற்றுக்கு மறுபக்கத்தில் மக்தப் பாக்ஸ் அல்லது நிலவழி பூங்கா கண்டுபிடிக்கப்பட்டிருக்கின்றன.

இந்திய தொல்லியல் ஆய்வு நிறுவனம் மட்டுமே நிலவழி பூங்காவையும் உட்படுத்தி வடிவமைத்திருக்கலாம் என்று கருத்து வெளியிடப்பட்டுள்ளது. இங்கு யமுனை ஆற்றே சொர்க்கத்தின் ஆறுகளில் ஒன்றாக ஒளி அமைப்பில் சேர்ந்து இருக்கலாம் என சொல்லப்படுகிறது.

தாஜ்மஹால் பூங்காவுக்கும் ஷாலிமாரில் உள்ள பூங்காவுக்கும் அவற்றை அமைப்பிலும் அங்கிருக்கும் ஊற்றுகள் செங்கல்கள் மற்றும் சிலை கற்கள் பதித்த நட பாதையில் வடிவவியல் ஊருக்குளில் அமர்ந்து செங்கல் வரம்பிட்ட பூம்படுகைகள்‌ ஆகிய கட்டிடக்கலைகள் காணப்படும் உண்மையும் சாலிமாறே அமைத்த அலி மர்தான் என்னும் பொறியாளர் தாஜ்மஹால் பூங்காவையும் அமைத்திருக்கலாம் என்று கருத்தும் நிலவுகிறது.

தாஜ்மஹாலின் வெளி கட்டடங்கள்:

தாஜ்மஹாலின் தொகுதி மூன்று பக்கங்களிலும் செந்நிற மணல் கற்றால் சுவர்கள் சூழப்பட்டுள்ளது. யமுனை ஆற்றிலே நோக்கியிருக்கும் பக்கத்தில் சுவர்கள் இல்லை. சோறுக்குவெளியில் ஷாஜகானின் ஏனைய மனிதர்களுடைய சிறிய சமாதி கட்டிடங்கள் உள்ளன. இவற்றின் பெரிய கட்டிடம் மும்தாஜின் இருப்பதற்குரிய பணிப்பெண்ணுடையது.

ஏ கட்டிடத்தில் பெரும்பாலானவை அக்காலத்து சிறிய முகலாய சமாதி கட்டிடங்களை போலவே செந்நிற மரக்கட்களால் ஆனவை. சுற்றுப்புறச் அவர்களின் உட்பக்கங்களில் வளைவுகளுடன் கூடிய தும் வரிசையில் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன இந்த இந்தியாவின் இந்து கோயில்களில் காணப்படும் தூண்கள் போலவே அம்சம் முகலாய கட்டிடங்களில் பயன்பட்டது.

முக்கிய சலுகைகளால் அமைக்கப்பட்ட இந்த நலவாயில் முந்தைய பேரரசர்கள் காலத்து முகலாய கட்டிடங்களில் நினைவூட்டுகிறது இது சமாதி கட்டிடத்தை ஒத்த வழிகளையும் படைப்பு சிற்பங்களையும் மதிப்பு அளவுகளையும் கொண்டுள்ளது.

தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டுமானம்:

ஆக்ரா நகரத்திற்கு தெற்கே உள்ள இடத்தில் தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டப்பட்டுள்ளது. மகாராஜா ஜெய் சிங் என்பவருக்கு சொந்தமான அந்த நிலத்தை பெறுவதற்காக ஷாஜகான் அவருக்கு ஆக்கிரநகரின் மையப்பகுதியில் ஒரு பெரிய நிலம் ஒன்றை வழங்கினார். மூன்று ஏக்கர் நிலப்பரப்பு கொண்ட அந்த நிலம் மண்ணெடுத்து இருக்கப்பட்டு ஆற்றுமடத்தில் இருந்து 50 கிலோமீட்டர் உயரத்துக்கு நிரப்பப்பட்டுள்ளது.

முதல் கட்டிடப் பகுதியில் ஆழமான கிணறு போன்ற அமைப்புகள் தோண்டப்பட்டு கற்களும் சிறு பாறைகளும் அதில் இட்டு அத்திவாரம் இடப்பட்டது. மூங்கிலால் ஆன சாரமார்களுக்கு பதிலாக பயன்படுத்துவதற்காக செங்கல் தட்கல் அமைப்புகள் ஏற்பட்டன இவை என் மதிப்புகள் மிகவும் பெரியதாக இருந்தால் இதை அகற்றுவதற்கு பல ஆண்டுகள் ஆகும் என்று அக்காலத்து மேட்பாளர் அவர்கள் கருதியதாக தெரிகிறது. மரபு வழி கதைகள்படி கட்டிடம் முடிந்ததும் கற்களை எடுத்து தாங்களே வைத்துக் கொள்ளலாம் என அறிவித்தானாம்.

15 கிலோமீட்டர் நீளமான சாயந்திரபாதி ஒன்று மண் போட்டு இறுக்கி அமைக்க பட்ட தலம் 20 தொடக்கம் 30 எவைகளை கொண்ட குழுக்களை கொண்டு இதற்காக உருவாக்கப்பட்ட வண்டிலில் கட்டளை ஏற்றி எழுதப்படுகிறது கையில் துண்டிக்கப்பட்டதாக கூறப்படுகிறது.

தாஜ்மஹால் தூய்மைப்படுத்தல் நடவடிக்கை:

தாஜ்மஹால் மீது களிமண் பூசி தூய்மைப்படுத்தி அழகு படுத்தும் நடவடிக்கையை தொல்பொருள் ஆய்வுத்துறை தொடங்க உள்ளதாகவும் வெயில், மழை, பணி, காற்று, தூசி, போன்றவை பரவி வருவதால் உலக பிரசித்தி பெற்ற தாஜ்மஹால் கட்டிடம் மாசுபடுத்தி வருகிறது என்று கவலையான தகவல்கள் வெளியாகின்றன.

This Colossal Tomb Is an Enduring Monument to Love

According to legend, Shah Jahan's favorite wife bound him with a deathbed promise to build her the most beautiful mausoleum ever known.

The Taj Mahal is widely considered one of the most beautiful buildings ever created. The exquisite marble structure in Agra, India, is a mausoleum, an enduring monument to the love of a husband for his favorite wife. It's also an eternal testament to the artistic and scientific accomplishments of a wealthy empire.

Shah Jahan, “the King of the World,” took control of the Mughal Empire throne in 1628 very much in love with the queen he dubbed Mumtaz Mahal or “Chosen One of the Palace.” The poets at Agra’s Mughal court said her beauty was such that the moon hid its face in shame before her.

The Mughals were at the peak of their power and wealth during Shah Jahan’s reign, and India’s rich lode of precious gems yielded him much wealth and power. But he was powerless to stop Mumtaz Mahal’s death during childbirth in 1631. Legend has it that she bound him with a deathbed promise to build her the most beautiful tomb ever known.

Promise or no, Shah Jahan poured his passion and wealth into the creation of just such a monument. It is said that 20,000 stone carvers, masons, and artists from across India and as far as Turkey and Iraq were employed under a team of architects to build the Taj Mahal in the lush gardens on the banks of Agra’s Jamuna River. They completed the epic task between 1631 and 1648.

While the arch-and-dome profile of clean white marble has become iconic, other beauties lie in the Taj Mahal’s painstaking details: inlaid semiprecious stones and carvings and Koranic verse in calligraphy create an enchanting interior space where Shah Jahan came to visit his wife’s remains before he was eventually interred at her side.

The Taj Mahal’s familiar marble domes are framed by four minarets from which Muslims are called to prayer. Each is designed with a slight outward lean, presumably to protect the main mausoleum in case one of them should collapse.

Two red sandstone buildings also flank the main mausoleum on either side. One, to the west, is a mosque. The other is a former guesthouse.

These buildings are set within lush gardens, complete with an enormous reflecting pool that regularly does what no human has ever been able to accomplish—duplicate the beauty of the Taj Mahal.

Shah Jahan himself gazed upon that beautiful image until the end of his days—but as a prisoner, not a ruler. His son Aurangzeb seized the Mughal throne and imprisoned his father in Agra’s Red Fort (itself a World Heritage site and popular tourist attraction). Whether as consolation or torture, Shah Jahan commanded a view of the Taj Mahal from his window.

How to Get There

Agra is a major city in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh and well accustomed to visitors—some three million people visit the Taj Mahal each year. The city is accessible by bus, train, and (limited) air service and has a wide range of tourist amenities. Access to the Taj Mahal complex is on foot.

When to Visit

The Taj Mahal is a year-round attraction and often busy, though new ticketing systems have thinned crowds at peak times. Visitors in search of more solitude might try coming early or late in the day. One time NOT to visit is on Friday, when the Taj Mahal is closed.

How to Visit

The mausoleum’s interior is a striking (if smallish) space that begs some leisurely exploration. But a good part of any visit to the Taj Mahal will be spent looking at the building from the outside. The mausoleum’s clean white marble shifts in color and tone to match the mood of the world outside—a transformation so enchanting that it’s worth lingering to gaze at the building in different conditions, such as the rosy glow of dawn or the magical light of a full moon.

The Taj Mahal is an enormous mausoleum complex commissioned in 1632 by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan to house the remains of his beloved wife. Constructed over a 20-year period on the southern bank of the Yamuna River in Agra, India, the famed complex is one of the most outstanding examples of Mughal architecture, which combined Indian, Persian and Islamic influences. At its center is the Taj Mahal itself, built of shimmering white marble that seems to change color depending on the daylight. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983, it remains one of the world’s most celebrated structures and a stunning symbol of India’s rich history.

Shah Jahan was a member of the Mughal dynasty that ruled most of northern India from the early 16th to the mid 18th-century. After the death of his father, King Jahangir, in 1627, Shah Jahan emerged the victor of a bitter power struggle with his brothers, and crowned himself emperor at Agra in 1628.

At his side was Arjumand Banu Begum, better known as Mumtaz Mahal (“Chosen One of the Palace”), whom he married in 1612 and cherished as the favorite of his three queens.

In 1631, Mumtaz Mahal died after giving birth to the couple’s 14th child. The grieving Shah Jahan, known for commissioning a number of impressive structures throughout his reign, ordered the building of a magnificent mausoleum across the Yamuna River from his own royal palace at Agra.

Construction began around 1632 and would continue for the next two decades. The chief architect was probably Ustad Ahmad Lahouri, an Indian of Persian descent who would later be credited with designing the Red Fort at Delhi.

In all, more than 20,000 workers from India, Persia, Europe and the Ottoman Empire , along with some 1,000 elephants, were brought in to build the mausoleum complex.

Design and Construction of the Taj Mahal

Named the Taj Mahal in honor of Mumtaz Mahal, the mausoleum was constructed of white marble inlaid with semi-precious stones (including jade, crystal, lapis lazuli, amethyst and turquoise) forming intricate designs in a technique known as pietra dura .

Its central dome reaches a height of 240 feet (73 meters) and is surrounded by four smaller domes; four slender towers, or minarets, stood at the corners. In accordance with the traditions of Islam , verses from the Quran were inscribed in calligraphy on the arched entrances to the mausoleum, in addition to numerous other sections of the complex.

Inside the mausoleum, an octagonal marble chamber adorned with carvings and semi-precious stones housed the cenotaph, or false tomb, of Mumtaz Mahal. The real sarcophagus containing her actual remains lay below, at garden level.

The rest of the Taj Mahal complex included a main gateway of red sandstone and a square garden divided into quarters by long pools of water, as well as a red sandstone mosque and an identical building called a jawab (or “mirror”) directly across from the mosque. Traditional Mughal building practice would allow no future alterations to be made to the complex.

As the story goes, Shah Jahan intended to build a second grand mausoleum across the Yamuna River from the Taj Mahal, where his own remains would be buried when he died; the two structures were to have been connected by a bridge.

In fact, Aurangzeb (Shah Jahan’s third son with Mumtaz Mahal) deposed his ailing father in 1658 and took power himself. Shah Jahan lived out the last years of his life under house arrest in a tower of the Red Fort at Agra, with a view of the majestic resting place he had constructed for his wife; when he died in 1666, he was buried next to her.

Taj Mahal Over the Years

Under Aurangzeb’s long rule (1658-1707), the Mughal empire reached the height of its strength. However, his militant Muslim policies, including the destruction of many Hindu temples and shrines, undermined the enduring strength of the empire and led to its demise by the mid-18th century.

Even as Mughal power crumbled, the Taj Mahal suffered from neglect and disrepair in the two centuries after Shah Jahan’s death. Near the turn of the 19th century, Lord Curzon, then British viceroy of India, ordered a major restoration of the mausoleum complex as part of a colonial effort to preserve India’s artistic and cultural heritage.

Today, some 3 million people a year (or around 45,000 a day during peak tourist season) visit the Taj Mahal.

Air pollution from nearby factories and automobiles poses a continual threat to the mausoleum’s gleaming white marble façade, and in 1998, India’s Supreme Court ordered a number of anti-pollution measures to protect the building from deterioration. Some factories were closed, while vehicular traffic was banned from the immediate vicinity of the complex.

Taj Mahal Essay

The Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful and well-known historical sites. It is situated in the Uttar Pradesh city of Agra. It is in a spacious area with a river on the backside. It appears to be a sight from nature. It seems to be heaven on earth. It is constructed from white marble. Every year, it draws tourists from all around the world. The Taj Mahal represents the enduring love of Shah Jahan, who erected it in honour of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The monument is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It serves as the famous Empress Mumtaz Mahal's mausoleum.

About Taj Mahal

The world-famous Taj Mahal was created because of the vision of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. After she passed away, he built this monument in honour of his devoted wife, Mumtaz Mahal.

In honour of his beloved wife, Shah Jahan hired the best artisans worldwide to build it. He was going to make something that had never been done before. The emperor desired to give his beloved wife one last present. People still praise Shah Jahan for his fantastic deed. It encourages you to value and cherish love in new ways. We may also see how the bodies of the immortal lovers are interred beneath the tomb. Mumtaz Mahal and Shah Jahan were buried close to one another and remained there after death for a very long time.

My Experience with Taj Mahal

On the day of the full moon in October of this year, I went to the Taj Mahal with a few of my schoolmates. The silvery moonlight glistening everywhere and glamorising the Taj brings out the best in its splendour. Greenery and flowerbeds nicely adorn the area around it. I was ecstatic to visit the Taj. Hundreds of men, women, and kids gathered to admire the Taj's magnificence. There were sizable groups of foreigners arriving. We also clicked many pictures in front of the monument.

A Symbol of Love

The Taj Mahal was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983 and is regarded as one of the most exquisite structural compositions in the entire world. After Mumtaz Mahal passed away, Shah Jahan erected the Taj Mahal in her honour and as a memorial. According to legend, Shah Jahan gave his wife the Taj Mahal as a gift. It is regarded as a representation of love and the tie between a husband and wife. It's interesting to note that the Taj Mahal is thought to represent Mumtaz's various emotions because it appears pinkish in the morning, milky white in the evening, and golden when the moon is out.

When Shah Jahan's wife was alive, he made her four vows. These commitments include constructing the Taj, getting remarried, going to the grave on each anniversary of his passing, and being kind to his kids. After two years, he decided to erect a memorial in her honour. Therefore, he decided to create a unique monument that had never been built before. With the help of 20,000 workers, he made the Taj Mahal—turning his vision into reality. The Taj Mahal's construction took 22 years to complete. Additionally, it was said that Shah Jahan had all 20,000 labourers' hands amputated to prevent them from ever again constructing monuments of this nature.

My Visit to Taj Mahal

A trip to a historical site is always a thrilling adventure. It is an exciting journey. During my recent summer vacation, when I visited Agra, I had one such encounter. I took the train to get to Agra with my family. After a short period of recovery, we started our sight seeing tour. Agra has a rich history. In India, numerous stunning historical sites are worth visiting. The most spectacular of all, though, is the Taj Mahal in Agra. First, we went to the Taj Mahal. The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan erected the Taj Mahal 350 years ago as a tribute to his beloved queen Mumtaj. It is situated along the Yamuna River's bank.

On all sides, it appeared white and identical. Green glass tufts and hot Cyprus tree shoots enhanced its majestic majesty. We descended the stairs and under the dome, in a dim room, we discovered the king and queen's graves. The side walls were ornamented with bits of glass in various colours and Quranic couplets. Each of the four minarets at the major buildings served as a watchman.

We finished our tour of the Taj Mahal at about noon and left the area. My journey to the Taj Mahal was a lot of fun. It was a unique event that, in addition to being intellectually stimulating, provided us with a taste of our nation's great heritage.

Taj Mahal's beauty and tradition are something that every Indian is proud of. This structure is highly known all around the world. The Taj Mahal receives between 2 and 4 million visitors annually. The monument is well-known worldwide due to its beauty and rich history, which attract the most tourists.
