Taj Mahal |
Another interesting episode of a good little series that eschews the shameless, misleading mystery-mongering so common among shows of this kind. Tonight we visit the Taj Mahal, which the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan had built in the 17th century to house the remains of his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal. One of the mysteries is the identity of the architect, another is whether Shah Jahan planned to build a matching mausoleum for himself on the other side of the river.
