Architecture
Among all Indian architecture, the Taj Mahal is my ultimate favorite. There is a very lovely love story behind it. Prince Khurram build this building for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Mahal died after giving birth to their 14th child. Before she died, he promised her that he would never remarry and will build the richest mausoleum over her grave. That is how the Taj Mahal was created. The slide show below also show some other old architectures. |
Housing
If you don't know yet, India is a very mountainous place. This results many of the houses to build in like a stair. Of course this is with my experience but in big cities, they do have sky scrapers. In small states like Mizoram, you will many houses that are build on mountains but in places like New Delhi, it is filled with tall buildings and flatter lands. |
