WhatsApp Image 2021-09-16 at 18.17.18.jpeg

What a life, what a joy. We are back in our sweet spot, where UNESCO World Heritage sites find themselves back in our limelight, and we can talk about architecture. And, not only architecture, but also a love story that has inspired generations for centuries, though there might be more to the story than we’re usually told. Today, your favorite BYWAP hosts talk about one of the seven Wonders of the World—the Taj Mahal. Join us as we demand for a healthy respect for the dead, make really bad MTV “Cribz” jokes, gossip about the lives of rich people, and wish that there was an Obsidian Taj Mahal.
