Little history about this place.....
The Taj Mahal is supposed to be, and has been throughout history the Symbol of "LOVE"..
The King had built this for his wife, out of love, and out of a promise he made to her before she died.
That he would honor her for eternity by building her the grandest of places..... And he would build it out of love for her. The best in the world.
And it was.
She was burried there in the tomb, and him beside her... He spent almost all of his money building this..... And much of his life.
In fact after he built the Taj Mahal, and after she was burried in there, he begun to build another.
Now these things were very very very expensive. They would take the whole savings of the King... But he wanted to build another. A black one right next to it! So he and his wife could be layed side by site for all of time.....
But his son had no part of this. He convinced the kingdom his dad the king was crazy, and overthrew him.....
For the rest of his life, the King was inprisioned by his son, the new king........
And his jail cell faaced the Mighty Taj Mahal for the last 10 years of his life.
Every day the king cried as he was in prision looking at the Taj Mahal and the tomb of his dead wife.....
Later the king died of heart break..
His son, then remorseful, burried his dad right next to his mother in the Taj Mahal so for eternity the two of them could be laid to rest together...
