The Black
Taj was named for the
Emperor as a monument for himself. It looks across the river to the tomb of his wife,
Taj Mahal. The
Emperor's son stopped the building because of the huge
expense at the time people were very much in need. This site and ruins of the foundation have been preserved today as a park.
"Lunch time for some of the workers who tend the park." We needed to give them some money to take the picture; as is only natural in India.
The Baby
Taj (as it is called) is built on the left bank of the
Yamuna River, across from the
Taj. The marble work is just as beautiful with very few people visiting. The gardens are gorgeous and peaceful.
Amazing stone work done on this ceiling
Tile work on the walls to match the ceiling it is incredible.
