The Taj Mahal
The Taj Mahal (pronounced /ˌtɑːdʒ mə'hɑːl/) is a famous mausoleum next to the river Yamuna in the Indian city of Agra. A mausoleum is a building where people bury the dead. The name Taj Mahal means 'the crown of palaces'.

1. 
The most famous part of the Taj Mahal is the large white dome in the centre. It is 35 metres high and is surrounded by four smaller domes. The rooms inside the building are decorated with beautiful archways and precious stones in the walls. The buildings are surrounded by gardens with pathways, pools, fountains and green gardens.

2.
The construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1632 and finished in 1653. It was built with materials from all over India and Asia, but the main material is white marble. Historians believe that the materials were transported by over 1,000 elephants for the construction.

3.
The emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal as a burial place for his wife, Mumtaz Mahal. According to legend, he wanted to build another Taj Mahal in black on the other side of the river, but this never happened. During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, many parts of the Taj Mahal were damaged by British soldiers, who took some of the precious stones from its walls. Over the years, the Taj Mahal has suffered from environmental damage, and there have been many government attempts to conserve its beauty.

4.
The Taj Mahal is one of India's most famous landmarks. There are millions of visitors to the mausoleum every year. The Taj Mahal is almost always included in lists of famous buildings to visit and is considered one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

こんにちは！Atsushiです。

今日の天気は雨。
今の気温は23℃。朝なので少し肌寒いです。

今日は北海道について紹介(しょうかい)します。



北海道の面積は、83,500㎢
人口は、516万人

道の木はエゾマツ、アカエゾマツ、
道の花はハマナス、
道の鳥はタンチョウです。

47都道府県中で唯一「道」という呼び方の場所です。
「都道府県の魅力度ランキング」で2021年では、全国で1位です。観光に行きたい場所でも1位、住みたい場所でも全国で3位と、人気がある場所です。

北海道には、アイヌという民族がいました。日本人（和人）は古代には渡嶋（わたりのしま）、近代に至るまでアイヌを蝦夷（えぞ)と呼んでいました。そして、この土地は蝦夷地（えぞち）などとよばれていました。

1869年（明治2年）、蝦夷地という名前から「北海道」とすることが決まりました。

今では、札幌市が1番人口が多くて、190万人が住んでいます。夏には観光、冬にはウインタースポーツもでき、2月には雪まつりもあります。

みなさんの北海道で好きなところがあれば、教えてくださいね。これから、少しずつ、47都道府県の紹介もしていきます。
