Fast forward and we arrive in Agra at midnight.

I am so tired that all I want to do is sleep and as we arrive and hand over our passports, yet again, we learn that our hotel has put up a feast for us. A course after course of food at midnight! No, no. no. I want a bed! And a bed I went to. I bailed – I know its rude and you should take the offer of food but I just couldn't keep eyes open – and I hit the pillow only to get up at 6.30am.

This is why I came to India... Taj Mahal baby!

I have been waiting five days to finally see the Taj Mahal, the tomb of Shajahan's favourite wife, Mumutaz-Mahal, who borne him 14 children. 14 KIDS! Bloody hell! No one wonder she died from health problems.

OK kids I am going to give you a brief history lesson of this big beautiful building and seventh wonder of the world!

Constructed from 1681 and completed in 1653, and constructed by 20,000 burly workers. The building is dedicated to Shan Jahan's third wife who died giving birth to their 14th child. According to historians, it is believed on her last breath, her husband promised to build a monument in her memory. The Taj Mahal, sits on the banks of the River Yamuna and features 28 different semi-precious and precious stones.

The marble walls of the Taj Mahal change colour with the time of the day – dawn its pale pink, noon, its white, and sunset, its golden. The gardens with their dark green cypresses and water channels are part of this beautiful building, and then the mosque, which looks over the River Yamuna... now when I went inside and was perfectly honest, not really amazed.

The Taj Mahal itself is stunning and breathtakingly beautiful. I swear it is better than any other building I've even visited in the world, and I've travelled A LOT!

I think the reason why its so beautiful is that it has a romantic story behind it. What woman wouldn't want her husband, boyfriend, lover to build her a building in her honour.

Hell, a box of chocolate and a slap on the arse will do for me!

Anyway after reading all about the Taj Mahal, watching documentaries, and everything in between and it still doesn't do it justice. Seriously people, if you get a chance, visit to Taj Mahal. Its unbelievable.
