Was the Taj Mahal originally an ancient Hindu temple?
I was wondering if you could tell me about a topic that I've been hearing about - was the Taj Mahal originally an ancient Hindu temple?
There is a theory that suggests that the Taj Mahal was originally a Hindu temple that was later converted into a mausoleum. However, there is little evidence to support this theory, and most historians agree that it was built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal.
