The main flaw found in the architecture of the Taj Mahal is that the central dome of the structure is not perfectly symmetrical as it should have been. Several theories have come about explaining the asymmetry. One says that it could have been a construction error but Mughal Emperors were known to order the reconstruction of the buildings they did not like. If it was an error why it has not been rectified? That brings us to the second theory that the asymmetry is intentional as artists back then were known to intentionally introduce errors in their works as they considered only Allah as perfect. However, this theory as well does not satisfactorily answer the asymmetry which brings us to the second flaw of the magnificent monument. The second flaw is that the base of the chhatris in the structure has been left in red sandstone. They have not been covered with white marble. The third flaw is relatively minor as it appears that the finial over the central dome is slightly tilted from the vertical axis. The possible cause behind the tilt is believed to be the installation of the bronze replica in the early 19th century. The fourth flaw is the placement of the Emperor’s tomb. The tomb of Mumtaz Mahal (for whom the Taj was built) lies perfectly in the centre of the chamber aligned with the main entrance. To its exact right lies the tomb of her husband, Emperor Shah Jahan (the man behind the construction of the Taj). This tomb is larger and situated higher than Mumtaz’s tomb. It is completely out of place and ruins the symmetry followed everywhere in the Taj. It suggests that the Emperor's tomb was not supposed to be there which was true.
Two imperfections of the Taj Mahal are as follows: 1. The central dome of the monument is not perfectly symmetrical. 2. Central dome is tilted from the vertical axis.
Other monuments which has bilateral symmetry is the eiffel tower Taj Mahal has a great mathamatical structure All the hard efforts the 20000 workers have put for 16 years has Made India proud 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Amazing 😄🙌🏻🙋🏻♂️ Asemmetry : The cenotaph of Mumtaz Mahal sits perfectly at the centre of the chamber, it is the cenotaph of Shah Jahan that seems as if it is congested ly placed or squeezed over there....
Shah Jahan's tomb is positioned beside Mumtaz's tomb. Mumtaz's tomb is at the center of the Taj Mahal. So, Shah Jahan's tomb disturbs the symmetry of the majestic Taj Mahal.
The limestone of the Taj Mahal is eroding because of acid rain as there are a lot of factories in the are to name one is Mathura oil refinery which release harmful gases such as sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide which mixes with water and causes acid rain. This is reducing the Beauty of Taj Mahal.
i love these videos keep making these videos really happy for 10 years, also it helps me in all my classes my teachers and class appreciates me for the information thanks so much :) my teacher is also giving me a gift for this and im always first in my class due to ur videos again thanks for the information u guys also give me a taste of definition for my speeches
Shah Jahan's 3rd wife Arjumand bano begum aka Mumtaz Mahal (Mumtaz begum), They were engaged on 30th January 1607, but married 5 years later but he married 4th wife on 2nd September 1617. Shah Jahan married 8 womens, Mamtaz died during her 14th delivery (1612 to 1631 19yrs and given birth to 14 children , Birth spacing is only 6months. How he got time to love his Mamtaz instead of 4th wife and Yearly delivering 3rd wife) #What a love?!!?!!
the famous symmetric monument in India is Rani Ki Vav , Patan in Gujarat and very well known temple in India that is lotus temple is also symmetric in shape.. I am a byju's primium and when I started studying in byju's... then I realised that byju's have so many lovely videos that i can understand everything.....thank you byju's 💜💜

Britishers took away the precious , valuable , and shiny gems like Emarald , Ruby , and Diamonds on Taj Mahal while they ruled our bharat desh.
Two imperfections of the Taj Mahal are as follows:
1. The central dome of the monument is not perfectly symmetrical.
2. Central dome is tilted from the vertical axis.
Other monuments which has bilateral symmetry is the eiffel tower
Taj Mahal has a great mathamatical structure
All the hard efforts the 20000 workers have put for 16 years has Made India proud 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF MATHEMATICS
The video was knowledgeable and interesting. Thanks Byjus!
What amazing things in this world ....wow
Amazing mind-blowing fantabulous
Amazing 😄🙌🏻🙋🏻♂️
Asemmetry : The cenotaph of Mumtaz Mahal sits perfectly at the centre of the chamber, it is the cenotaph of Shah Jahan that seems as if it is congested ly placed or squeezed over there....
The best explanation how the Taj Mahal was made
Shah Jahan's tomb is positioned beside Mumtaz's tomb. Mumtaz's tomb is at the center of the Taj Mahal. So, Shah Jahan's tomb disturbs the symmetry of the majestic Taj Mahal.
Byjus..is best...!!👍👍👍..because...it will gives us so many ...!!knowledge !! Thankyou byjus.... Lots of love...!!!
The Information was very useful to me.
And some facts I didn't even knew about it
Well done BYJU'S 🇮🇳💯👍🏻
Very informative.. I love Maths very much.
Mathematics is really good subject.and also used in ancient history
The limestone of the Taj Mahal is eroding because of acid rain as there are a lot of factories in the are to name one is Mathura oil refinery which release harmful gases such as sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide which mixes with water and causes acid rain.

Byju's explain me every topic perfectly 👍👍👍
Fantastic explanation
Thankyou Byjus. Amazing explanation
Byju's is not only the study but also the visualisation
The symmetry of Taj Mahal proves the mastery of the architect.
❤❤❤❤❤❤byjus animation .really makes it clear and understandable.
"Humayun's tomb" made by the Mughal Emperor Humayun in Delhi, India is one such example of symmetrical monuments.
Interesting want more like this!!!!!
Classic knowledge 👍😊
I love BYJU'S i understand every concept
Great knowledge by Byju's ✨🌟
Thanks a lot for such wonderful video byjus, animated so perfectly 👍👍👍
The video was awesome with so much of interesting facts.
💜
Answer is :- The central dome of the monument is slightly askew.
5:23 , Ya , it's the cenotaph of Shah Jahan .
It was sooooooooo interesting I love this video ❤️ thank you byjus......👍😉
Brilliant
i love these videos keep making these videos really happy for 10 years, also it helps me in all my classes my teachers and class appreciates me for the information thanks so much :) my teacher is also giving me a gift for this and im always first in my class due to ur videos again thanks for the information u guys also give me a taste of definition for my speeches
This was a great video. I got to learn about taj mahal while learning maths
This really helped me in my Mathematics Holiday Homework
Really grateful

Shajahan’s cenotaph is positioned west of the central axis, throwing off the equilibrium.
Answer to 5:20 ➛ Acid Rain that Affects it's Beauty!🙂
#ProudByjuite
Make video on math of south indian temples they use more maths than any other monument
Thanks BYJU'S for this video
👌👍 best
wow
Thanks for this wonderful video
Nice video
Nice observations..
Wow symetry is easy for architecture to look beautiful it have humyan tomb
very nice video wonderful.
5:33 (I think)Degradation of Tajmahal due to depositing of salts by pollution.
Useful information
