Taj mahal of Agra is no doubt one of the top wonders of the world. When construction of this wonder was completed, Shah Jahan had planned another Taj mahal in black marble on other bank of Yamumna river. Taj mahal is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1983 and known as "The jewel of Muslim art in India".
It took almost 22 years to complete building the Taj Mahal at Agra..
It is believed that Shah Jahan commanded that the hands of the craftsmen and architect be severed off following the creation of Taj Mahal to ensure that another such monument is not built again.
