Taj Mahal - Loved one adored

In 1631, Shah Jahan, emperor during Mughal's period of greatest prosperity, was grief stricken when his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, died during the birth of their fourteenth child.

• The court chronicles of Shah Jahan's grief illustrates the love story traditionally held as an inspiration for Taj Mahal.
  

• The construction of Taj Mahal begun soon after Mumtaz's death with the principal mausoleum completed in 1648. The surrounding buildings and garden were finished five years later.Emperor Shah Jahan himself described the Taj in these words:

"Should guilty seek asylum here, Like one pardoned, he becomes free from sin. Should a sinner make his way to this mansion, All his past sins are to be washed away. The sight of this mansion creates sorrowing sighs; And the sun and the moon shed tears from their eyes. In this world this edifice has been made; To display thereby the creator's glory"

When I visited along with my friends Taj i was simply delighted to see such a wonderful monument one cant explain in words the Taj.............worth to visit

Celtic city Galway

The city Galway takes its name from the Gaillimh river in Irish language (River Corrib) that formed the western boundary of the earliest settlement, the fort at the bottom of the Gaillimh. The word Gaillimh means "stony" as in "stony river".

• The population of Galway is largely descended from a mix native Gaelic peoples and of Anglo- Norman settlers.

• In recent years Galway has attracted a sizeable immigrant community, largely from Poland and other Central European countries and Baltic States states such as Latvia and Lithuania many of whom work in the service industry. Small but growing Asian and African communities has also attracted cultural and religious diversity to this west coast city.
  

Galway is the west coast city of ireland and it attracts many tourists its due to its mild weather conditions. It has harbor for imports and exports with many European and Americas.
