"Black Taj" : Window to The Taj Mahal
Hello Folk,
This is going to be my first blog and I would really appreciate you all sharing your views on this.
Like the many post about Taj Mahal I will not talk about the inner beauty of 'Taj' but the aura it spreads across its surrounding.
To have a different look into its beauty we have to go all the way round, across the Yamuna River into the very foundations of Black Taj. It is believed that Shah Jahan the Mughal Emporer wanted to built a similar architect just opposite to The Taj Mahal, in the form of Black structure for himself.
Shah Jahan himself had shown praise to the beauty standing at the very own spot grazing towards the Taj Mahal on a crescent moon night. The very spot is the precious garden built by Babur called the Mehtab bagh ( The Moon Garden ). On the banks of Yamuna River, north of Taj asides a perfect place to adore the white pure Taj Mahal.
The place has its own scenic beauty and fresh clean air. The ticket cost ₹25 per person to enter the garden. On the right you will find the Taj Mahal floating in the heights of clouds. The garden was all covered with trees and flower plants, with a fountain at its centre. To the right of fountain the foundation stones for Black Taj. One will feel peaceful and refreshed embracing towards the Taj.
So while you were adoring the Taj have a different perspective and look through the eyes of Shah Jahan you'll be thrilled by its beauty.
