Taj Mahal


The grand finale of my trip in India was seeing the famous Taj Mahal. Of course I had heard so much about how magnificent it is and seen many pictures, but nothing compared to being there.
We were there for the sunrise and after some explanation of the story of how it came to be and how it was constructed, we spent nearly two hours wandering around and admiring the structure. As the sun rose, the light shining on the marble and inlayed stones changed, making it look different, so we all took many pictures during the two hours (I only took 179). It was a peaceful way to finish my trip.
