The Shah Jahan ‘s wife, who have died due to some complications when she give birth to his last child, and in honor to his love, Shah Jahan built this amazing monument in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal It took 22 years and the labor of 22,000 workers to construct the monument, this was the last wish of Mumtaz Mahal..
Taj Mahal elements of it’s exterior decoration where created by applying paint stone inlays, stucco, or carvings.
The exterior design is formed by many geometric forms, with contrast colors which are creating geometric patterns for a famous exterior design. The decorating walls are spectacular: white marble that have been sculpted with realistic bas relief decorated with flowers and vines. The inlay stones are of yellow marble, jasper and jade, polished and leveled to the surface of the walls which created an interesting and also beautiful architecture design. Enjoy the photos below.
