The imitation of great works of architecture has a long tradition (long before Las Vegas took it to a new art form.) In the case of Bibi ka Maqbar, what better way to memorialize yourself than to design yourself a mini Taj Mahal? A mausoleum designed in the 17th century, this "Poor Man's Taj" offers a peek into Indian architectural history. Read a first-hand account of visiting the mausoleum (and check out some more great photographs) at Travel Magic.
The vibrancy of India has inspired artists for ages and their attempts to capture what they see results in a array of breathtakingly beautiful colors. Whether it be in a shot from a travel photographer or a film approach, like in Wes Anderson's Darjeeling Limited we always wonder, has anyone ever been successful? Have you been to India? Does India live up to its representation?
