Compare the uncomparable :)
Well, how to write about sights? Is it the same as describing what a color is to a person with black and white vision, or trying to describe how roses smell to someone with no sense of smell? Attractions must see!
Here's how to explain that one attraction is much more interesting than another attraction? And especially when it comes to something that hundreds of millions of people have already seen and tens of thousands of reviews, impressions, studies, articles, essays, notes, news, etc. have written about it. etc. ?
How can you describe the Taj Mahal in a new way? Everything that you don’t write will look like a rewrite of what someone already had somewhere somewhere.
But I'll try. Moreover, I want to describe to a greater extent not the Taj Mahal itself, but its older brother, the Mausoleum of Humayun.
What do these attractions have in common and how do they differ?
Both of them have very similar architecture, but the very widely known and famous Taj Mahal was built in the image and likeness of the simply famous Mausoleum of Humayun.
If Humayun's Mausoleum is built of red sandstone, which is typical of India, then the Taj Mahal is built of white marble, which is rare in India.
While the Mausoleum of Humayun set the architectural style in India for 300 years, the Taj Mahal was just a typical building of this kind of buildings, made in this style.
If the Mausoleum of Humayun was built in 1570, then the construction of the Taj Mahal was completed almost 100 years later - in 1653.
If the Mausoleum of Humayun was built by order of a loving wife for her husband, then the Taj Mahal, on the contrary, was built by order of a husband for his beloved wife.
While Humayun's Mausoleum is in Delhi, the Taj Mahal is in Agra. The distance between them is more than 200 km.
What these attractions really have in common is that they are both included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Well, now the question is: which of these architectural and historical sights is more remarkable?
Personally, I like Humayun's Mausoleum more.
But in order to decide, you need to see them : )
As you know, the taste and color of all felt-tip pens are different : )
