It Is Worth the Early Start to See the Beauty on Private Sunrise Taj Mahal Tours
The Romantic tale behind the construction of the Taj Mahal begins in 1607 with a 14-year-old Shah Jahan who was the son of the fourth Mughal emperor in India, catching a glimpse of 15-year-old Muslim Persian Princess, Arjumand Banu Begum and falling in love at first sight with her. In 1612 their match was solemnised.
In 1628 after becoming Emperor, Shah Jahan entrusted Arjumand Banu with the royal seal and gave her the title Mumtaz Mahal which means “Jewel of the Palace”.
While Shah Jahan had other wives, Mumtaz Mahal was his favourite and she went everywhere with him including on military campaigns.
Due to complications when giving birth to their 14th child, Mumtaz Mahal died. It was on her deathbed that Shah Jahan made the promise never to remarry and to build the finest mausoleum above her grave.
After 22 years and 22,000 workers, the worlds most beautiful mausoleum was finished and holds the side by side tombs of Shah Jahan, who died in 1666, and Mumtaz Mahal
