Taj Mahal is a spiritual journey, not merely a monument of love, says historian Rana Safvi at Hyderabad exhibition
Historian Rana Safvi is curating an exhibition at the Salar Jung Museum that reframes the Taj Mahal as a spiritual and theological monument rather than just a symbol of romantic love. The exhibition explores the Mughal-era philosophy, Sufi influences, and architectural symbolism embedded in the structure.

The exhibition will be on for three months from July 6 to October 4.
