Taj Mahal was built in the 17th century by the Mughal emperor  Shah Jahan in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal. 

It is considered as the 8th wonder of the world and this was made in an honor of the third wife of Shah Jahan. It is located in Agra, Uttar Pradesh and is one of the biggest tourist attractions in India till now. 

The fact which is not true about Taj Mahal is that this is not a mosque, many people call this wonder a mosque, this is tomb which was made in the memory of Shah Jahan's wife.
