The Taj Mahal (Urdu: اج محل) is a World Heritage Mausoleum located in the city of Agra, India. It was built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal.

The Taj Mahal is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Its architectural style is a unique amalgamation of components of Persian, Ottoman, Indian and Islamic architecture. In 1983, the Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along with this, it was described as one of the finest human works of World Heritage, universally praised. The Taj Mahal has also been declared a gem of Islamic art of India. Its white dome and tile are covered with marble in shape, instead of making them like the buildings made by being covered with large layers of marble ingots commonly seen. The mausoleum built in the center shows the combination of beauty in its architectural excellence. The special feature of the structure of the Taj Mahal building group is that it is completely symmetrical. Its construction was completed around 1648.Ustad Ahmad Lahori is often considered to be its principal designator. The focal point of the Taj Mahal is a white marble mausoleum built on a square foundation. It is a symmetrical building, with an ivan i.e. extremely large curved (arch-shaped) door. A huge dome is adorned on top of this building. Like most Mughal tombs, its original components are of Persian origin.
