the taj mahal (lit. 'crown of the palace'), originally the rauza-i-munawwara is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the southern bank of the river yamuna in the indian city of agra. it was commissioned in 1632 by the mughal emperor shah jahan (reigned from 1628 to 1658) to house the tomb of his favourite wife, mumtaz mahal; it also houses the tomb of shah jahan himself. construction of the mausoleum was essentially completed in 1643. the taj mahal was designated as a unesco world heritage site in 1983 for being the jewel of muslim art in india and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage. it is regarded by many as the best example of mughal architecture and a symbol of india's rich history. it was declared a winner of the new 7 wonders of the world (2000–2007) initiative.
