We went inside. There was much crowd. Tajmahal was looking very grand. It was built by Mugal emperor Shahjahan in the sweet memory of his queen Mumtaz mahal. It’s a symbol of love and considered one of the wonders of the world. I touched it. It was very smooth and cool. There were beautiful crafted panels depicting flowers, leafs etc. We sat in the back side of Taj. Yamuna river was flowing nearby. I felt like heaven. We stayed there for sometime. Then we took some snaps. We spent the whole day there. We were tired. We came back by the night train. Memory of that day is still fresh in my mind.
