Taj Mahal, located in Agra, India, is documented as the famous known mausoleum built under Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, in memory of his beloved wife, Queen Mumtaz Mahal.
It's architectural styles are a combination of Persian, Turkish, Indian and Islamic elements. In 1983, the Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admired universally as a masterpiece of the world's heritage, it was said to be 'the jewel' of Muslim art in India.
Beautiful and mystical, Taj Mahal is also said to be the Atlantic City of the East ...

'Mahal' in Malay language means expensive; 'Mahal Kita' in Tagalog means 'i love you (very much)' hehehe
