The Taj Mahal 'Crown of Palaces' is a funerary monument built between 1631 and 1654 in the city of Agra, on the banks of the Yamuna River, by the Muslim emperor Shah Jahan of the Mughal dynasty. The imposing ensemble of buildings was erected in honor of his favorite wife, Arjumand Banu Begum - better known as Mumtaz Mahal - who died in childbirth with her fourteenth child. It is estimated that some 20,000 workers worked on its construction under the direction of a group of architects led by the court architect, Ustad Ahmad Lahori.
