Taj Mahal reflection
Originally uploaded by bastchild.
The Taj Mahal was built as a mausoleum for Shah Jahan's wife who died in childbirth. Both he and his wife are buried beneath the Taj Mahal. It took over fifty years to build at a cost of about $60 million today. For some reason, this Muslim structure has become the iconic tourist postcard shot for this mostly-Hindu country.
