Over 1,000 elephants were used to transport building materials during the construction of the Taj Mahal.
This beautiful building changes its color at different times of the day, with a pinkish hue in the morning, milky white in the evening and golden at night when lit by the moon.
It is believed that these changing colors of the Taj Mahal depicts the changing mood of a woman.
There has been a popular myth about the construction of Taj Mahal that Emperor Shah Jahan chopped off the hands of all the laborers involved in its construction so that no such structure could be built again.
