Today, Taj Mahal is considered one of the most impressive examples of Islamic architecture from the Mughal dynasty. In the state of Tamil Nadu, discover Brihadeeswarar Temple, a true landmark and one of the largest of Hindu temples. Brihadeeswarar features a main temple constructed entirely out of granite and several temple dieties. For a bit of relaxation, head to Kerala on India's Malabar coast.
