The most beautiful building created by mankind - The Taj Mahal

 The Taj Mahal, dubbed the most beautiful architecture created by mankind in the Taj Mahal, is the essence of Islamic art built by the emperor Jahan for his wife who died after giving birth to her 14th child. Against the backdrop of a well-decorated garden, the scenery of the Taj Mahal reflected in a pond lined with shrubs shows the height of elegance beyond the world of matter. Century romance, which creates an outstanding architecture that combines delicately carved white marble, an incomplete proportion, and beautiful landscaping, captivates viewers. Agra is a city with a relatively short history and became the capital of the Mughal Empire in the 16th century. Sikander Lod, the last monarch of Delhi, began building Agra Castle in 1505, and Babur of the Timurid dynasty, who succeeded it, built a Persian Shahar Bach-style garden on the banks of the Yamuna River. By Akbar Daeje, the Mughal Empire grew from Afghanistan to Bangal and Kashmir to Central India, establishing Fatehpur Castle in Agra. Akbar's grandson Shah Jahan liked white marble and replaced the appearance of Chishiti in Patehpur Castle with marble. After that, grieving over the death of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, he built Taj Mahal, the highlight of Mughal architecture, to commemorate her. The prejudice that Indian architecture is simple and insignificant is that it is not aware of the richness and diversity that appear in the style and decorative art of Mughul architecture. Currently, only its name and fragments remain, but it is not difficult to imagine a beautiful agra filled with gardens and terraces along the riverside. The Taj Mahal, made of white marble, is located in the center of a square stylobate with spire in four corners, and is a representative Indian-Persian building that collects the essence of Islamic decorative art. In the Taj Mahal, you can feel the same immaterial elegance as you can feel in the Alhambra Palace. The white marble surface, which is deeply shaded, looks thin and transparent. The dome used in the graves of Islamic monarchs began in the Byzantine period. The dome of the Taj Mahal is composed of double, and the outer dome reaches 44m in height. Four kiosks were placed around the dome to make the huge dome look small. In addition, the entire building is floated by a large balloon-like dome, giving it a feeling that it is not touching the ground. The annex, which stands symmetrically left and right at a distance from the spire at the end of the stylobate, is related in an appropriate proportion, giving a sense of stability to the soaring movement in the center. The beautifully planned landscape exhausts the architectural effect, and the cold white color of the Taj Mahal rises from the water in the pond in front of the line of shrubs. The Taj Mahal reminds us of the fragile elegance of the Alhambra Palace, but rather surpasses it in its complexity.
