The Taj Mahal is basically a gorgeous tomb made of marble and jewels for a princess, built by her love! I have seen pictures of it for years but nothing would prepare me for just how grand and HUGE it is. When we first turned the corner to see it, it looked fake. It looked as though there was a painted background of the Taj Mahal. But as we got closer and closer it got bigger and bigger! It was so beautiful and had so many tiny details. What a labor of love!
The Ganges river is the most holy place in all of India. We took a sunset boat ride down the river along the steps called Ghats. We saw people practicing yoga, praying, washing their clothes and swimming. We rowed by some very beautiful temples and also light a few floating to candles to remember loved ones that had passed. It was a very spiritual moment that I will never forget. India is a very special place.
