The Taj Mahal:the most famous symbal of love in the world~<1>


The Taj Mahal is one of the most incredible buildings in the world.Located in Agra,India,it's famous for its beautiful inlays and white marble towers.Everyone can appreciate the beauty of the Taj Mahal,but did you know that it was build for love?
In 1627,India was ruled by the Mughals,a Muslim people from Mongolia.They were very powerful,and even called their leader Shah Jahan,which means "The King of the World."The Shah's wife was the most beautiful woman in India.He called her Mumtaz Mahal,which means "The Jewel of the Palace."
Shah Jahan was madly in love with his wife,and would do anything for her.He gave her gold and diamonds,and granted her every request.She accompanied him everywhere,even when he went to war.The people also loved her because she had such a compassionate heart,giving money to widows and orphans.When poor people came to appeal to the king,she would convince her husband to help them.
1.The summarize is talking about the build for love.Mumtaz was very devoted to Shah Jahan,and followed her husband whereverhe went!
