The Taj Mahal was never a palace it was a memorial burial palace ground for the queen that died.
The Taj Mahal perhaps. but it is a mausoleum.
Taj Mahal
Taj Mahal is a palace mainly as the name refers [Taj:crown and mahal:palace i.e. crown of palaces] but people think it as a tomb as Shah Jahan has built this in the memory of his 3rd wife Mumtaz Mahal
No it is the tomb of emporer Shah Jahan's wife.
Taj Mahal, is not a Muslim name as there is no such word called Mahal in Persian. A building is called Mahal in Sanskrit/Hindi; it called Manjil in Persian. Taj Mahal was called Tajo Mahal or the temple of Shiva inside a Rajput palace of Jagat Singh, grandson of Man Singh, the commander of Mongol Emperor Akbar.
Shah Jehan took over a Rajput palace from Jagat Singh, grandson of Man Singh. Taj Mahal was a Shiva temple inside that palace. Shah Jehan then put verses of The Koran all over the place to claim it as a Muslim building. Taj Mahal is not a symbol of love, Shah Jehan had hundreds of women in his harem. 6 other women are also buried in the Taj Mahal complex.
The main structure of the Taj Mahal was completed in 1648, and the adjacent buildings and gardens in 1653.
No. Taj Mahal is not a palace, but a sort of shrine. In there, inside of two unburied coffins, lie the remains of the Munghal emperor Shah Jahan and his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, for whom the mausoleum was originally made.
This is what I found: http://www.angelfire.com/in/myindia/tajmahal.html Cheers
the Taj Mahal it is an imperial Palace
Mumtaz Mahal was not alive when the Taj Mahal was built. When she died, she was buried in the Taj Mahal.
Whatever is your language, Taj Mahal shall be called as TAJ MAHAL only Hope this helps
