A trip to Northern India – Part 6 – Taj Mahal, Agra.
Hey Cupids,
So talking about the demonetization across India and the
hardships and problems the travelers have to go through as 500 and 1000 Currency
Denominations are not accepted, hope this step by the Prime Minister brings
good results.
Once upon a time when these currency notes were accepted (
-J ) , I
would like to narrate a wonderful and unforgettable trip that we had to one of
the most beautiful wonders of the world and also this will be the last segment
of “A trip to Northern India”.So after visiting Delhi, we hopped on the train that took us to Agra which is about 195 to 200 kms from Delhi.
Once you hear the name of Agra, the picture that immediately brushes your mind will be of the wonderful monument know as TAJ MAHAL.
Love often knows no boundaries and when you see a monument like
this your mind will immediately get indulged in a broader definition of love.
In the Bollywood and during school and college time we had
seen lovers ( or would rather say cupids ) presenting each other with a small
version in the form of a key chain or rather a showpiece that people kept as an
item of work presented for display.Little did we knew that this amazing mausoleum was not only immense but also so wonderfully built that left us completely gob smacked.
Beautifully built
with amazing carvings this iconic monument symbolizing love is built by the
Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal.
Defined by 4 huge minarets the Taj Mahal is built inside a
courtyard that is set behind a reflecting pool.

The beautiful designs, paintings and an equally amazing
architectural work on the marbles of the TAJ MAHAL left us bewildered that how was
it possible to construct such a lavish monument when there was no modern
technology. Later we realized that the only technology that was available was
the experience, skill and proficiency of the craftsmen of India during those
time.
Thinking about those artisans I was completely spellbound
and lost in an era where these craftsmen and artisans dedicated their lives in
creation of this awestruck monument. Dipika quickly snapped and brought me out
of hypnosis.
We overheard one of the guides saying that as per the
legend Shah Jahan was even planning to build another exact replica of Taj Mahal
on the other side of the river with black stone.
Hearing this we said to ourselves Wow….this man had so much
at the back of his mind.
Wonder why he wasn’t succeeded.
Awarded a winner of the Seven Wonders of the World , the
TAJ MAHAL is a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE.
Trust us….No CANON or NIKKON can do justice for this
beautiful monument.
Visit yourself and be witness to this sheer amazing
architectural work that has replicated into what is called “TAJ MAHAL.”
Till that time keep peeping into our pics and stay tuned
for next segment…..
Coming Soon only on cupidtravellers.
Love
Dipika &
DevD
