Lu's Days ...

Taj Mahal, one of the 7 (man-made) wonders of the world. Before I went there, I always thought that Taj Mahal is just a single building all by itself in the middle of nowhere. But apparently, it is surrounded by a fort sorta structure that acted as its protectors. Those surrounding buildings are awesome by themselves. But compared to the Taj, which is all made up of white marble, they seem like only a "nice addition" to the awesome architecture.

To the Taj !



Everyone gotta leave their shoes behind with this dude.



Taj itself is huge.



Hmm ... will my blog readers get sick of all these Taj pictures ?



Just like the cover of the lonely planet book.



The side is under maintainence.



After the Taj, we went to Agra fort. From there, the Taj can be seen. I don't wanna bored you guys with yet another "how amazing it was" sorta descriptions. So I'll just let you guys see the picture.

Have you played Serious Sam before ?



This place is just like one of the stage in Serious Sam.



You can see the Taj in view from the fort.



Amazing ...
