Its roof has mud tiles mixed with gold to show humility and its terrace is stabilized with iron-filled casements. Its cenotaphs use gemstones to depict flowers in pietro dura and its garden is divided by canals and based on the Persian chaharbagh plan. 20,000 men built it, many carving their names in Persian or Devangari, and its namesake destroyed the Christian settlement at Hooghly, selling the people into slavery and having the priests trampled by elephants. Because white symbolizes Brahmins and red kshatriyas, the main building is faced with marble while the adjacent mosque and Assembly Hall are red sandstone. For ten points, name this Agra mausoluem of Shah Jahan and his wife Mumtaz.
