Site of the Week:- http://www.taj-mahal.net/
Excellent website to have a virtual tour of Taj Mahal - One of the most instantly recognizable buildings in the entire world. Along with viewing 360 degree views of the grounds and the various structures located there, visitors can view short films that relate the story of how the Taj Mahal was built and current efforts to preserve the area.
