The Taj Mahal was built by Shah Jahan as a tomb for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. This presentation shows some of the spectacular views of the Taj Mahal, including its southern entrance, interior, and the tombs of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal. It also discusses how Shah Jahan's son Aurangzeb built a replica called Bibi-Ka-Maqbara in Aurangabad, and the need to protect the Taj Mahal from pollution as its white marble is turning yellow.
13. There is a need to protect the Taj Mahal
because it’s white marble is turning yellow
due to factors like acid rains, chemicals in
the air emitted by the factories near it,
garbage dumped in the Yamuna flowing
past it and pollution.
