Taj - the grandeur

Taj stands so majestic, an imposing structure in its white marble, that it never fails to inspire an awe, no matter how many times you have visited it before. Few last pictures of the grand monument, before we move on ....

Taj - different strokes

From the base of the tomb

One of the minarets

A Bore-well

Cupola - it is the leftmost part of the Naqqarkhana structure

The entrance - seen from the platform of the tomb
(It was a cloudy winter day, so some pictures got hazy)

Taj - Art Work

Entrance of the tomb

Designs inlaid in marble with colorful stones

Floral designs hand-carved into marble

An ornate dome

A series of arches ... symmetry!
