Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal in memory of his favorite wife and I am building it for a great conversation piece in the living room. This is the first of several videos where I am constructing the Lego set 10256 which models the Taj Mahal – which is known as the jewel of Muslim art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world’s heritage.
