Taj Mahal
During this time the garden was remodeled with British-looking lawns that are visibletoday.
In 1942, the government erected a scaffolding in anticipation of an air attack byGerman Luftwaffe and later by Japanese Air Force. During the India-Pakistan wars of1965 and 1971, scaffoldings were again erected to mislead bomber pilots. Its recentthreats have come from environmental pollution on the banks of Yamuna Riverincluding acid rain due to the Mathura oil refinery, which was opposed by SupremeCourt of India directives. In 1983, the Taj Mahal was designated a UNESCOWorldHeritage Site.
