Woah! I don't know how I missed this. The building is amazing, and the reflection in the water takes the cake.

Excellent Replica :) The reflection in the water is my favorite detail!

Stunning work! And a very well deserved MOTD!

Wow.

Beautiful:)

This is absolutely fantastic! Congrats on MOTD :)

Wow just wow

I'm very impressed with how you did the reflection pool! Nice work!

truly inspiring!

This model of the Taj Mahal, build in 2005 (which pre-dates Lego's model), was taken apart and the pieces were used for another, better, more intricate model of the Taj in 2008 (which also pre-dates Lego's model. (Look at the icon to the left or look at my folder on Mocpages) The "newer" model was used for a movie entitled "Taj", an independent Australian film. The film is making its USA debut next weekend in Boston and the following weekend in San Francisco. See more at http://www.tajthemovie.com/index.html

A truly worthy MotD, brilliant!

Even more beautiful than the set Lego made, which I guess this predates. It's stunning, and I love the reflection of it in the water.

Cool! Two months ago I was at the Taj. this is a great replica! I love the reflection on the water, but I think you should make the water a little more thin. Other than that, A-MA-ZING!

WOAH! Incredible.

FANTASTIC! congrats on MOTD!

It looks great and I love the reflection too. How long did it take you to make this?

This looks like one of your few mini-fig scaled creations. The 'reflection' in front of it is amazing!

exellent way of capturing the reflecton!!!!! one of my favorite creations ever!!!

amazing job.

You have the reflection

That is nuts!!! Amazingly detailed and very well built. Great Job!!

magnificent structure! you even got the reflection in the pool! Bravo!

good golly golly! need I say more?! AWESOME!!!

i am 11 and i think this deserves to be placed in legoland miniland. wow. but not any wow, a wow that signifies appreciation for a work of art, built with art itself.

This is even better than the one made by the lego company! It's smoother, and I love the water with the reflection! Genius!!

I really love this creation. It's very beautiful. It looks similar to the new (shipping 10/01/2008)Lego Set 10189 Taj Mahal. Of course since they are both based on the same building, that is to be expected, but I'm a little surprised to see that this seems to built to the same scale. Am I right? Does this model measure approximately 20 x 20 x 16 inches? Of course the Lego set does not include the reflective pool, but that's okay. It will be the perfect modification to work on. May I ask? What part did you use for the secondary domes? They appear to have been especially molded for this model.

It looks nice. The reflection pool is cool. But, I must say that I like your other one better. That does not mean this is bad at all. I like it.

Beautiful. Nice reflection! -- -- Michael

I died when I saw the the buiding,it is awesome,and you built a REFLECTION!? SWEET Absolutely stunning work,one of the best Mocs I have seen in a good long while.

Arthur, you're a genius! i would have never thought of putting a reflection in the water! great work.

cool water reflection. Awsome idea.

This Temple is great

Awesome job! Excellent idea with the reflection. This is a great representation of the Taj Mahal. Keep up the awesom work!
