Shah Jahan period architecture is an Indian building style that flourished during the time of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor. The Taj Mahal, in Agra, India is a prime example of this type of architecture. The architecture was characterized by symmetry and balance between the parts of the building, with white marble being a top choice of building material. Another example of Shah Jahan period architecture is found in Delhi, India, at the palace-fortress begun in 1638. The "Hall of Public Audience" and the "Hall of Private Audience", which housed the Peacock Throne, are two more examples of architecture from this period.
