Mahal is a Sanskrit word means building; in Persian the corresponding word is Manzil.
Taj came from the original word Tejendra one of thenames of shiva. Taj Mahal was a Shiva temple within a Rajput palace, which was taken over by theMongol shah Jehan to turn it into a tomb.
Before it became the name of one of the world's most beautiful buildings, Taj Mahal was the name of a woman. She was Arjumand Banu Begum (begum is a title for a Muslim woman of high social rank), the favorite wife of Shah Jahan, who was the Muslim ruler of India's Mughal Empire from 1628 to 1658. He affectionately called her Mumtaz Mahal, meaning "ornament of the palace." The name Taj Mahal.
What is written above is false; Shah Jehan had no wife called Mumtaj Mahal---it was invented by the British historian Vincent Smith.
Shah Jehan's favourite woman was Arjumand Zamani.
Mumtaj Mahal cannot be any body's name because Mahal is a Sanskrit world for building. Shah Jehan used to speak Persian, not Sanskrit.
The name came from the fact that Taj Mahal used to be a temple of Shiva ( Tajendra is one of the names of Shiva) inside a huge palace that used to belong to Jagat Singh, grandson of Man Singh, the commander in Chief of Akber, the grand father of Shah Jehan. It is a Hindu building, as it is facing East, It is Octagonal according to the Hindu Vastu Sashtra, it has motifs of lotus flower important for Hindu religion but prohibited in Muslim architecture.
The literal meaning of Tajmahal is Crown of the Palace. Taj means Crown and Mahal stands for Palace.
The Taj Mahal is a mausoleum built during the 17th century in memory of Arjumand Banu Bagamin Agra, the wife of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan.
the taj mahal is in India and is a big building [little like Washington D.C].
