Yes the "Taj Mahal" is very famous in India. Its name is spread in the nooks and corners of the Indian Union. And now it is famous all over the world, as it is one of the Seven or some might say eight Wonders of the world. It could be described as the most famous temple in the world. Wondering where abouts it is? Well, it is in Agra which is just south of New Delhi.

Mongols when they overrun India were uncivilized nomadic barbarians never seen any buildings but used to live in tents ( they still do, go to Uzbeckistan and see). They could never built Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal was a temple of Shiva. Mongol emperor Shahjehan took it back from Jagat Singh and reconstructed as a Mosque, but with a wrong direction (facing East rather than West). Shah Jehan had no wife named Mumtaj Mahal or Taj Mahal. The name of the quuen who was buried next to him was named Arjumand Zamani.
