Madhya Pradesh Man built a replica of the Taj Mahal, gave it to his wife
A resident of Burhanpur, Madhya Pradesh, built a replica of the Taj Mahal and gifted it to his wife. Anand Prakash Chouksey, an educator, built the four-bedroom building for his wife, Manjusha Chouksey. For inspiration, the couple went to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal. They carefully studied its architecture and asked the engineers to note the structural details.
Initially, Mr. Chouksey called on his engineers to build an 80-foot-tall house. But, permission for such a structure was not granted. After being rejected, he decided to build a structure like the Taj Mahal.
Mr. Chouksey’s unique home was built over a period of three years. Engineers built it on the basis of 3D images of the Taj Mahal.
Mr Chouksey believes his home will be a sight no visitor can miss when visiting Burhanpur.
According to consulting engineer Praveen Chouksey, the house is 90m2 wide with small towers. The basic structure occupies 60 square meters. The dome is 29 feet tall and includes two bedrooms on two floors. The house also has a kitchen, library and meditation room.
The engineer also visited the Taj Mahal to study it in detail. He also went to Bibi Ka Maqbara, a similar monument in Aurangabad.
