  Classic Taj
  
Agra
December, 2004
In fact, this is the classic monument to love.  
Add in a little fanaticism, a little hand cutting offage, a little familial rivalry, a 
bit of imprisonment, and a little symmetry.  
(The verses of the Koran, among other things, insure that the symmetry is not as 
perfect as advertised.)
