Shah Jahan period architecture


Shah Jahani architecture is an Indian building style that flourished during the time of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. The Taj Mahal in Agra, India is a prime example of this type of architecture. The architecture was characterized by symmetry and balance between the parts of the building, with white marble being a top choice of building material.
Another example of Shah Jahan period architecture is found at the Red Fort in Delhi, India. The "Hall of Public Audience" and the "Hall of Private Audience", which housed the Peacock Throne, are two more examples of architecture from this period.
