75% of players answered correctly.

THE CORRECT ANSWER: India

The Taj Mahal is undoubtedly the most beautiful testimony of architectural love in the world. Located in Agra, India, this sumptuous white marble mausoleum was built in the 17th century by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan.The drama hidden behind this marvel is a story of mourning and deep sadness: the emperor ordered its construction to house the remains of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died giving birth to their fourteenth child. Broken by grief, the sovereign mobilized more than 20,000 artisans and thousands of elephants to create this masterpiece.Another tragedy marked the end of his life: Shah Jahan was overthrown by his own son and imprisoned in Agra Fort, from where he could only look, through a small window, at the tomb of his great love.
