ABOUT SHAH JAHAN & MUMTAZ
 Shah Jahan, initially named Prince Khurram, was born in
  the year 1592. He was the son of Jehangir, the fourth
  Mughal emperor of India and the grandson of Akbar the
  Great. In 1607 when strolling down the Meena Bazaar,
  accompanied by a string of fawning courtiers, Shah Jahan
  caught a glimpse of a girl hawking silk and glass beads. It
  was love at first sight and the girl was Mumtaz Mahal, who
  was known as Arjumanda Banu Begum at that time. At
  that time, She was 14 years old, a Muslim Persian princess.
  After meeting her, Shah Jahan went back to his father and
  declared that he wanted to marry her. The match got
  solemnized after five years i.e., in the year 1612.
Tomb of SHAH JAHAN and MUMTAZ MAHAL
When SHAH JAHAN died in 1666, his body was placed in a
tomb next to the tomb of MUMTAZ MAHAL.
ABOUT TAJ MAHAL
 Taj Mahal, the magnificent monument that stands at the
  heart of India has a story that has been melting the hearts
  of millions of listeners since the time Taj has been visible. A
  story, that although ended back in 1631, continues to live
  on in the form of Taj and is considered a living example of
  eternal love. It's the love story of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz
  Mahal, two people from the course of history who set an
  example for the people living in present and the future to
  come. An English poet, Sir Edwin Arnold best
  describes it as "Not a piece of architecture, as other
  buildings are, but the proud passion of an emperor's
  love wrought in living stones." The story that follows
  next will prove why the statement is true.
