The Taj Mahal

The 17th century white marble mausoleum was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz. It symbolizes eternal love and is renowned for its intricate design, inlaid gemstones, and shifting colors throughout the day.

Marble Inlays

The Taj Mahal exemplifies Mughal artistry through its exquisite marble inlay work, or Parchin Kari, a tradition of embedding precious stones into marble to create intricate floral and geometric designs. Over 20 types of stones were carefully inlaid to produce these patterns through meticulous craftsmanship, adorning the walls, archways, and cenotaphs of the iconic building.

Floral Patterns

The marble inlay flowers on the Taj Mahal hold profound symbolic meaning, representing paradise, beauty, and eternal life. These floral patterns serve as a tribute to Mumtaz Mahal, and the everlasting nature of the love between her and Emperor Shah Jahan.
