Building the most wondrous piece of architecture of its time and creating a wonder of the world was what Prince Shah Jahan did in memory and out of love for his dead wife Mumtaz Mahal. The heartbroken prince enlisted a number of laborers after his wife’s death in 1631 and constructed the most symmetrical, finest and grandest palace of white marble studded with precious gems. This palace which took 22 years to build, served as the dead queen’s tomb and when Shah Jahan died in 1666 was also laid here to rest beside his beloved queen.
2. Tattooed their face
As if it’s not crazy enough to get the name of your lover tattooed on your body, an 18 year old Russian, Lesya Toumaniantz got her one date old boyfriend’s name tattooed on her face in huge black letters. Rouslan Toumaniantz, the said boyfriend is a tattooist who did this outrageous act and the couple say that this shows their ‘eternal love’ for each other.
3. Underwent surgery to resemble each other
