Construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1631, and is believed to have taken 20
years to complete, with over 20,000 craftsmen working around the clock. The design
and construction is said to be that of the legendary architect, Ustad Ahamad
Lahori. Legend narrates that once construction was completed, Shahjahan had Lahori's
hands cut off, and blinded, so he would never be able to duplicate the structure.
What makes the Taj Mahal unique is its perfect proportions, distinct femininity,
medium of construction and ornamentation. Its marble exterior reflects rose and
golden tints at sunrise and sunset, while it is dazzling white during the day.
It is impossible to visualize the Taj Mahal in any surrounding others than its
paradoxical garden. Paradise, in Islam, is visualized as a lush garden where
running streams flow. When the Mughals brought this concept to India they elevated
it to heights of incomparable artistry.
