Mockingly, Greatest symbol of love on the death of thousands workers who built it... That's Shah Jahan - The Moughals hi, i am totally agreed with ‘Chakolate’. and also adding a fact that ’shah’ never wanted to create a ‘Black Taj Mahal’ coz for your knowledge shah jahan, a mughal empror, himself ordered to cut off both hands of all ‘mistries’ (supervisors and workers) just to ensure the uniqueness of his construction.

He had several. And it wasn't so much a tribute of love for her as a display of power for Jahan. His father's and grandfather's tombs are also quite remarkable. It was a Mughal tradition to flaunt their wealth and power, especially in an occupied country, by creating lavish mausoleums. What would you expect from a guy whose name means 'King of the World'? Oh, and the fact that his son had him shoved in with the favorite wife instead of building a lavish tribute of a mausoleum for an honored father shows a lot about how the son felt - it was the ultimate disrespect.
