ASTALAVISTA! Why Are The Minarets Of The Taj Mahal Leaning Outward

The four minarets surrounding the taj mahal in agra are designed with a slight outward lean to protect the taj in case they collapse the tilt seeks to ensure that the minarets will fall away from the tomb in case of calamities such as an earthquake. Talking to The Pioneer on Tuesday Superintending Archaeologist ASI Agra Dr D Dayalan said that though it is a fact that one of the front minarets of the Taj mahal was indeed tilting by 85 inch outwards this was either a deliberate structural feature introduced by the architect of the monument or it may have occurred sometime back in history due to a natural calamity like an earthquake.
