A silent black & white film sequence of the Taj Mahal from 1928, taken by Howard E Bowers, a newspaper editor and publisher and amateur travelogue filmmaker. The Taj Mahal was recently named one of the "New Seven Wonders of the World." The film clip is from the Human Studies Film Archives, Smithsonian Institution collection of historical moving images.
Fantastic footage. The only modern difference I can see is that the trees have been replaced by 1000000 people walking around all over.

Wow! Great footage! It was interesting to see Taj Mahal through a grainy black & white film. Awesome!
