Just like China, India is another vast place in which there are more than enough places to visit in one lifetime. That's why all travelers to India must have a priority list of things they want to see - otherwise, you are going to get lost in where to travel first. Many travelers make a habit of visiting the Taj Mahal, as the place is one of India's most famous hallmarks.
The Taj Mahal looks magnificent in person - there is no angle from which the temple is unflattering. Many have called the place the world's most beautiful building. The place was commission by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, and it was meant to be a memorial to his beloved wife. The Taj Mahal also works during the night (but only if it's a full moon), which is the recommended time to visit it.
