NOTES
Originally broadcast as an episode of the television program Lost Worlds on the History Channel
From tragedy and loss came one of the most spectacular monuments ever erected, India's Taj Mahal. Built four hundred years ago as a tribute to Emperor Shah Jahani's beloved third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died in childbirth, the Taj Mahal was an undertaking of unprecedented extravagance and beauty. Upwards of 20,000 workers toiled to create the astounding feat of engineering, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983
