After the completion of Tajmahal, Emperor Shah Jahan planned to create a carbon copy of this Tajmahal, not in a real manner but in a virtual one. The Mehtab Bagh which is just to opposite of Tajmahal, adjacent to the Yamuna river was once the idea of Emperor Shahjahan to convert in to a virtual Tajmahal. He structured the layout of the Mehtab bagh fully identical with that of Tajmahal base area and planned to cover it fully with black granite. His idea was to create a shadow of the Tajmahal on that black granite during the day as well as moonlight thus constructing a Tajmahal formed by the shadow of the real Tajmahal.
This idea as we may assume had a lot of potential but before this potential materialized, Emperor Shahjahan was captured by his son Emperor Aurangjeb and put into prison.
