The high point of achievement in Mughal architecture
(Indo-Islamic architecture developed by Mughals in 16th century), represents
the Taj Mahal, described as the “teardrop on the cheek of time” by Rabindranath
Tagore. Emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal entirely of white marble in
memory of his wife Mumtay Mahal. Shah Jahan decorated the building with large
scale-inlaid work of jewels and symmetrical mirror mosque in red sandstone. The
