Explanation:

* Taj Mahal was built by Shah Jahan for his wife, Mumtaz.

* He had many wife's but married the only due to political reasons.

* He.fell head over heels in love with Mumtaz, which is why he built Taj Mahal only for her.

* Mumtaz died during childbirth and Shah Jahan was actually in a war during that time.

* It took 15 years to build it.

* Taj Mahal was actually built around Mumtaz so that the pathway to her grave could be built smaller than her coffin. This was to prevent thieves from robbing the gold placed around her coffin.

* The 4 great pillars around Taj Mahal are slightly inclined away from Taj Mahal si that the wouldn't fall on the building in case of natural disasters.

* A lot of gold was placed in Taj Mahal but they got stolen.

* During wars, Taj Mahal's highest tower was covered by bamboos so that no the enemies would be able to spot it while flying in helicopters.

* It was rumored that Shah Jahan wanted to build a black Taj Mahal opposite to the Taj Mahal.
