The Taj Mahal was said to be the most exquisite and breathtaking sight one could ever behold." Maya imagined herself standing in front of this magnificent palace, surrounded by beautiful gardens and towering minarets. She felt as though she was already there, feeling the cool breeze on her face and marveling at its grandeur.
