In a
weekend we decided to visit Agra for that we are to book a train ticket. On the
day of departure we reached the railway station and boarded the train. It was a
journey of 130 KM from New Delhi. We are a accompany with a few friends. We
enjoyed the journey to the Agra. We reached within three hours to Agra Cantt.
Taj Mahal is one of the seven wonders of the world. It is situated on the Right
bank of the river Yumuna.
It is built of pure white marble. The main building stand over a basement in a rectangular shape with a big dome at the centre, at each end of the plinth stands a three-storeyed minaret. There is a whole layout of fountains and gardens attached to it. The Taj was built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in a memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. Inside the Taj it is real tomb of Mumtaz Mahal in the basement. It took twenty thousand workman and took twenty years to complete the building.
The Taj looks grand and magnificent in a full moon night and attracts a large numbers of visitors from home and abroad. Incidentally it was a full moon night when we reached the Taj.
On returning to our lodge we enjoyed the visit to Taj and feeling tired and after taking dinner we slept through out night and in the morning we took the breakfast and took the train for returning home.
