The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Taj_Mahal_Palace_Hotel.jpg

The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, is a five-star hotel located in Mumbai, India. Built in 1903, in the Indo-Saracenic style, by architects Sitaram Vaidya and D. Mirza, this hotel has 565 rooms, 46 suites, 11 restaurants, and 22 floors. The Beatles, Kennedy's, Clinton's, and several other notable guests have all stayed at this architectural masterpiece. (ABOVE) The domes on top of the hotel are very typical in Indo-Saracenic architecture. You can see how the architects tried to resemble the Taj Mahal when designing the hotel. (BELOW 1) This photograph beautifully displays a view of the main hotel as well as the Tower Wing, which at one point served as a different hotel.
