Question

you recently visited a historical place. write a short diary entry in about 50-60 words describing your experience.

Answer 1

The Taj Mahal is the most magnificent building in India.  It is called ‘one of the seven wonders of the world.”  It was built by the Moghul Emperor Shah Jahan in the sweet memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.  Twenty thousand workmen including some European masons worked day and night for twenty years to build it.  It cost the Emperor several crores of rupees.

                I had a keen desire to visit this famous building of the world.  At last the day came when my long-cherished desire turned into reality.  Last year I had an occasion to attend the marriage of a friend of mine.  This gave me a chance to see this master-piece of artistic design.  As I came close to it, I was struck by its unique structure.  It is a marvel in marble.  We went to the underground room where Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal lie buried.  Our minds went back to the times of Shah Jahan when he built this building at a high cost.

                The Taj is surrounded by a cypress garden on three sides. It is situated on the bank of the river Jamuna which lends charm to its beauty.  The surroundings and the garden and lustre to its architecture. The beauty of the Taj beggars description.
