The elderly man from Uttar Pradesh, India lost her in late 2011. Filled with grief and loneliness, he decided to build the structure. His plans are coming to life on a 5000-square-feet piece of land.
The Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan is the man behind the original Taj Mahal. Comprised of white marble, the extravagant structure took around 20 years to build.
