Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal (Persice et Urdu تاج محل, "corona palatii"^[1]) est mausoleum in India, Agrae situm, quod imperator Mogol Shah Jahan aedificandum curavit in memoriam uxoris suae dilectissimae, Mumtaz Mahal.

Aedificium late habetur optimum pulcherrimumque architecturae Indomongolicae exemplum, in quo elementa Persica, Indica, et Islamica commiscuntur.^[2]^[3]

Quamvis sepulcrum tholatum marmoris albi est pars notissima, Taj Mahal est complexus structurarum et hortorum. Coepit aedificari anno 1632 et perfectum est 1654, plus quam mille artificibus peritis et opificibus occupatis. Constructio consortioni architectis mandata est cui praefuit imperator ipse, inter quos fuerunt Abdul Karim, Mamur Khan, Mahramat Khan, Ustad Ahmad Lahauri.

Anno 1983 tablam UNESCO Mundi Hereditatis regestum est.
