Taj Mahal, India

Love is a beautiful thing! Especially if it leads to a magnificent piece of art like the Taj Mahal. Inspired by nothing but love and adoration for his other half, Emporor Shah Jahan commissioned the best architectures in India to a decade-long construction— which estimates at a whopping $830 million in today values.

The stretch from its gates to the front door is a large empty space, a wide walkway with trees on the sidelines, and then comes the captivating exterior of the tall building. Inside is a collection of jewelry and ancient Indian art and tombs of the Emperor and his wife.
