Tip from tour guide
Just 2.1 km (1.3 mi) from this hotel is the Taj Mahal, one of the world's most admired wonders. It shows the eternal love of Shah Jahan, the fifth Mughal emperor, for his wife, Mumtaz, who died during childbirth.
The monument, now one of India's most famous, was constructed over 21 years. It took 32,000,000 INR (384,759.68 USD) to build. The sparkling white marble reflects the sun beautifully, leading to the structure winning several laurels. In 1983, it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
