The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in the loving memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal built the Taj Mahal. Today, it is a major tourist attraction in India.

:: JAIPUR ::

Founded in 1727 AD by one of the greatest rulers of the Kachhawaha family, king Sawai Jai Singh, Jaipur is the capital city of Rajasthan and is popularly known as the 'Pink City of India'. The pink color was used at the time of constructing the place to create an impression of red sandstone buildings of Mughal cities. The whole town was repainted in 1876 for welcoming the Prince of Wales who visited Jaipur in that year. A popular tourist destination today, Jaipur is host to numerous fascinating forts, pleasing palaces, terrific temples and luxurious gardens. All together add more grace to the allure of Jaipur and make it an important link on the Golden Triangle of India.
