Shah Burj

Musamman Burj also known as the Saman Burj or the Shah-burj, is an octagonal tower standing close to the Shah Jahan's private hall Diwan-e-Khas in Agra Fort.Musamman Burj was built by Shah Jahan for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. It is said that at first a small marble palace built by Akbar was situated at this site, which was later demolished by Jehangir to erect new buildings. Shah Jahan in his turn chose this site to erect the multi-storied marble tower inlaid with precious stones for Mumtaz Mahal. It was built between 1631–40 and offers exotic views of the famous Taj Mahal.

This is a tower in Fort Agra. According to our satirical guide, it was built by Shah Jahan (yes, he was an impulsive builder) for his wife Mumtaz in early 1600. It is obviously covered with gems but no longer exists. Successive dynasties or rulers have turned themselves into valuables. Visiting this part of the fort requires an additional fee, but you can enjoy the view of the Taj Mahal. It was here that the old man spent his last day when he was locked up. Sadly

最小的儿子推翻Shah Jahan之后，这位前统治者被囚禁在阿格拉堡。被驱逐的国王要求一项让步-他们将他放到可以看到他妻子安息之地泰姬陵的房间。这是有可能的，因为两个结构都位于同一条河的不同河岸上。宫殿的这一部分装饰丰富，显然，儿子仍然想使父亲的生活更美好，至少是在他家的舒适和美丽中。从宫殿的这一点确实可以看到泰姬陵，可惜阴霾不允许拍摄清晰的照片

坐落在泰姬陵附近，来来往往游客很多。整个建筑非常古朴，保留比较完好。
