泰姬陵，阿格拉，北方邦，印度

今天，让我们来探索世界七大奇迹之一的泰姬陵。它坐落在印度北方邦阿格拉的亚穆纳河畔，乳白色的大理石陵墓惊艳了无数人。图片中的泰姬陵是1631年莫卧儿王朝的第五位皇帝沙贾汗下令建造的，目的是纪念他深爱的妻子蒙泰姬·玛哈尔。这座陵墓是占地42英亩的建筑群的核心，该建筑群还包括一座清真寺、答辩厅以及被高墙环绕着的美丽花园。陵墓呈醒目的矩形布局，两侧是巨大的拱门和壁龛，融合了印度伊斯兰和莫卧儿建筑风格。其设计灵感来源于一些著名的建筑，例如乌兹别克斯坦撒马尔罕的古尔·埃米尔陵墓、德里的胡马雍陵以及沙贾汗的贾玛清真寺等。它的外圆顶高约145英尺，内圆顶高75英尺多，是一项令人难以置信的建筑壮举。作为穆斯林艺术的瑰宝和全球杰作，泰姬陵于1983年被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产。

Taj Mahal, Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India

Let's explore the Taj Mahal, on the banks of the Yamuna River in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. This ivory-white marble mausoleum was commissioned in 1631 by Shah Jahan, the fifth Mughal emperor, to honor his late wife, Mumtaz Mahal. It is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.

This tomb is the centerpiece of a sprawling 42-acre complex, which also includes a mosque, a guest house, and beautifully landscaped gardens surrounded by a grand wall. The tomb is flanked by giant arches and alcoves that merge Indo-Islamic and Mughal architectural styles. It's also an incredible architectural feat, with the outer dome reaching around 145 feet high and the inner one standing more 75 feet. Celebrated as a jewel of Muslim art and a global masterpiece, the Taj Mahal was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.
