Shah Jahan period architecture is an Indian building style that flourished during the time of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor. The Taj Mahal, in Agra, India is a prime example of this type of architecture. The architecture was characterized by symmetry and balance between the parts of the building, with white marble being a top choice of building material.
Another example of Shah Jahan period architecture is found in Delhi, India, at the palace-fortress begun in 1638. The "Hall of Public Audience" and the "Hall of Private Audience", which housed the Peacock Throne, are two more examples of architecture from this period. He wanted to build a black Taj Mahal opposite to the white Taj Mahal and make a bridge by which we could pass from one Taj Mahal to the other above the Yamuna river but unfortunately, it was never accomplished due to the gelchod salim kara issues that were uprising at the time.
