EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the timeless beauty of the Taj Mahal at sunset as reflected in the serene waters of the River Yamuna. Taken in the year 1984, this image transports us back to the 18th century Mughal era, a period of romance and grandeur in Indian history. The Taj Mahal, a mausoleum of white marble, stands proudly against the backdrop of the setting sun, its intricate designs and symmetrical architecture illuminated by the golden rays of the sun. The reflection of the monument in the tranquil waters of the river adds an ethereal quality to the scene, creating a mirror image of the iconic structure. Located in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India, the Taj Mahal was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. The monument is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The sun casting long shadows over the landscape, the gentle ripples on the water's surface, and the soft hues of orange, pink, and purple in the sky all come together to create a breathtaking moment in time. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the Taj Mahal and the magic of the Indian subcontinent.
