Friends, there is also a very well-known story behind the Taj Mahal, according to which during the first monsoon, the drops of water fall on the tomb of Mughal Emperor Shahzan and his Begum Mumtaz Mahal.

Read this blog till the end because I am going to tell you more interesting facts about the Taj Mahal.
Friends, thousands of tourists who come to see the Taj Mahal every year do not know that what they are seeing in front is the back part of the Taj Mahal. Actually the royal door which is on the other side of the river Yamuna. Today, most tourists do not see the Taj Mahal as the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan wanted. The Yamuna river was the main way to reach the Taj Mahal during the Mughal period. It was a kind of highway. The king and his royal guests used to come in a boat. There was a platform on the banks of river Yamuna. But as the time passed, the river also got bigger and that platform was destroyed. Because the river had also increased. Mughal emperor Shahjahan and his royal guests used to come to the Taj Mahal from the same platform. Many historians say that the Mughal emperor Shahjahan had cut off the hands of the people who built the Taj Mahal. But this thing looks like an affliction, because there is no evidence of this. Many historians also say that Shahjahan had written the agreement to the people who built the Taj Mahal by giving them a lifetime salary that they would never build any other such building. Friends, the minarets you are seeing around the Taj Mahal are not exactly erected, but the four minarets are tilted outwards.
I told you, the four minarets of the Taj Mahal are slightly out of the way and because it has fallen because of the earthquake like disaster, the minarets are also outside, and it does not get any damage to the main mausoleum. Friends, India's highest tower is Qutub Minar, but in front of the Taj Mahal, it also looks small because the height of the Taj Mahal is 73 meters and the height of Qutub Minar is 72.5 meters.

But Friends, Qutub Minar is located in Delhi. Friends, out of all the beautiful buildings in the world, the most beautiful calligraphy has been done at the Taj Mahal. As soon as you walk in through the big doors of the Taj Mahal, the calligraphy written on the door welcomes you, "O soul, you rest in God. Kar. May God be at peace with him, and may his peace always rain upon you. " That calligraphy is written in Thooloot script. The name of the author of this calligraphy was Abdul Haque. And this Abdul Haq was called from Iran. Shah Jahan had to recognize his art and he was named Amanat Khan as an honor and title. The time when Shah Jahan became Emperor was the golden day for the Mughals. In the Sultanate of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, there was peace, prosperity and peace among his subjects.
The Mughal Emperor Shahjahan was fond of building large buildings. He gave the Mughal Vastukala
Was merged with the ancient history of India. People had never seen a beautiful building like Taj Mahal before. The white marble used to make it was brought from a place called Makrana in Rajasthan. Jade and crystal were brought from China. Lapis lazuli was brought from Afghanistan. Turquoise was brought from Tibet. Jasper was brought from Punjab. Sapphire was brought from Sri Lanka and carnelian was brought from Arabia. Altogether 28 such jewels were installed in Sangmarwar. More than 1500 elephants were used to bring all these things to India from abroad.

But During 1857 the revolution, the British extracted many precious gems from the Taj Mahal. Everything for the construction of the Taj Mahal was chosen after examining it like a diamond. The carving on the walls of the Taj Mahal has been made by the Italian people. Workers who had carved Sangmarwar from Uzbekistan were called.
Laborers came from Iran to perform the calligraphy on Sangmarwar. And the workers of Baluchistan were called to carve the stones. In the revolution of 1857, the British dug out many valuable gems like lapis lazuli from the walls of the Taj Mahal. The Kalash which is on the main dome of the Taj Mahal used to be gold first, but in the early 19th century, the Kalash was removed after putting the gold Kalash. The Taj Mahal was built by a team of 37 people. More than 50 wells were dug during the foundation of the Taj Mahal. Along with the bricks and stones, the wood of Ebonus and Mahogany was also put in these Kuo. These wells make the foundation of Taj Mahal strong. The specialty of ebony and mahogany is that the more moisture they get, the stronger they become and the moisture they get from the Yamuna river water.
