Information Of Taj Mahal Biography

Taj Mahal is the most excellent example of Mughal architecture, a method that merges elements from Indian, Islamic and Persian architectural styles. Taj Mahal is enclosed by a magnificently laid out walled garden and consists of five major constituents, i.e.

The main gateway- Darwaza

The Gardens – Bageecha

The mosque – Masjid,

The Rest house – Naqqar Khana and

The Main mausoleum – Rauza

The central entrance, with its arched middle chamber, is positioned at the last part of the long waterway. Mosque is on one side of the Taj Mahal and the Naqqar Khana on the other, built primarily to retain its symmetry. The main building stands on a square raised platform with its four reduced corners, forming an asymmetrical octagon. The most intriguing part about its architecture is that despite of merging perfectly with the main structure, each element maintains its own identity. As a typical feature of Mughal mausoleums, false sarcophagi of Mumtaz Mahal and Shah Jahan are placed in the main chamber while the real graves are at a lower level. The perforated marble screens are responsible for the transmission of light to the main chamber.
