Here I have to write for informative article, so I choose to give
information about “The Lay”. ‘Taj Mahal’ is as beautiful
as its name is situated on the left bank of the river “Yamuna” in
Agra.Agra established by Sikandar lodhi but Taj Mahal build later on after
lodhi dystany.Great Mughal Emperor ShahJahan build “Taj Mahal” in
the memory of his beautiful wife Mumtaj Mahal. There are four minars in the
surroundings of Taj, made up of pure white sandstone, we also know it by the
name of Marble. Taj look enormous beautiful in the full moon light.
Half-circle that is on the top of the Taj is one of the architectural
feature of Mughal Dynasty.
Great ‘Agra Quila’ made by Akbar is another worth seeing
architectural build up in Agra. It is made up or red sandstone.
Near Agra, there is place Fatehpur-Sikri, where we can see the ‘Buland
Darwaja’. Buland Darwaja is also build up by Akbar after his Gujrat
victory. In Fatehpur Sikri we can shop around where cultural and ethnic
wears like suits, shawls, carpet and so on.
For instance, I bought some shawls, chappals from there. I enjoyed a lot in
Agra city. Agra is full with our historical culture, traditions, customs.
Whole detailing of my experience is not possible here, so I have given very
little informative line about that place. But I’m sure that after
reading this article, image of Taj Mahal might clicked in your mind at least
for once.
