Before the Taj Mahal was built, the site was primarily a barren area along the banks of the Yamuna River. It was chosen by Emperor Shah Jahan for its scenic beauty and tranquility, with the surrounding landscape featuring gardens and water bodies. The area was relatively undeveloped, and the construction of the mausoleum transformed it into the iconic architectural masterpiece we see today. The site was cleared and landscaped to accommodate the grand design of the Taj Mahal, which was intended to symbolize love and beauty.
