Taj Mahal, as interpreted by Salman Rushdie
Taj Mahal has always been one of the major attractions pertaining to India travel experience. Falling in the list of Seven Wonders of the World, Taj Mahal is something, which has been pondered by everyone.

One of the most influential novelists of our times, Salman Rushdie has also showered his comments on this marvel of the 21st century. How can we ignore words from a man of such stature, that too on the Taj Mahal?

Salman Rushdie says "The trouble with the Taj Mahal is that it has become so overlaid with accumulated meanings as to be almost impossible to see. A billion chocolate-box images and tourist guidebooks order us to "read" the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan's marble mausoleum for his wife Mumtaz Mahal, known as "Taj Bibi," as the World's Greatest Monument to Love. It sits at the top of the West's short list of images of the Exotic (and also Timeless) Orient. Like the Mona Lisa, like Andy Warhol's silk-screened Elvis, Marilyn, and Mao, mass reproduction has all but sterilized the Taj Mahal." (Source: National Geographic)

In fact, we understand the sensitivity of Salman Rushdie. He is absolutely right when he says that the Taj Mahal has been profusely interpreted by the tourists around the world. However, it depends on the person who is visiting the Taj Mahal for experiencing it from travel point of view.

As there is no dearth of travel agencies in India, tourists are simply taken to the Taj Mahal as a routine. Then there are guides, who grace the occasion by simply showering their own understanding on the Taj. However, the fact of the matter is that Taj Mahal is something to be honored from one's own eyes. Now, that is something of significant value. We at Visit India make sure that you interact with the Taj in the manner you deserve. Now, here lies the difference.

As we proceed towards the monument, we make sure that you experience it from your standpoint. And that must be authentic. Now, this is something, which needs to be carefully handled as we do with utmost precision.
