Taj Mahal is dying. Help.?

I got a huge building, completely made of marble. Owing to the rising pollution and dust, in the hot and humid climate of central india, I want to protect my Marble building from being stained and turn black due to soot deposit.

if you haven't figured it out yet, I am talking about the great wonder of the world - The Taj Mahal. Its made of marble. Its the only reason, why Agra is visible as a micro Dot on the world Map. And the only reason why its not getting any bigger.

Pollution is everywhere, so is corrupt politicians. Agra has for long been in the limelight for The great Taj Mahal. And now a days its going in the newspapers for all the wrong reasons. politicians see a huge potential in the great tourist attraction place of india. Their most profitable source for minting money.

There's hardly any industrialization here due to the pollution control law passed by the government. I mean common! We're in the 21st century, where androids bomb afghanistan, cellphones are worn as wristbands, ice skating is a favourite sport in An Arabian Desert. And much more than this. In this golden era, the Agraiets are left to nothing but nail biting and cursing the government and the great taj Mahal. It may be great for a billion people, but I guess its losing its charm.

Agra is filthy, dirty, crowded, and one of the most backward cities of india. Politics or no politics, agra deserves to improve in both infrastructure, and lifestyle.

I was only reading the newspaper today, and discovered that they are planning to build a small rope-bridge from Taj Mahal to Agra Fort. Which will have a 800 ton HVAC facility for the tourist.

The whole article enumerate so many flaws and bad direction to the plan, that its not worth a debate. Politicians should focus more on infrastructure, employment and economy. All they are actually working on, is perhaps new ways to extort money from the system.

Its a shame. And We all need to get to the bottom of all this.

How can you protect a marble monument from getting soot deposit due to pollution? I got a few options, would love some comments and more options available.

1. Wash the entire building everyday.
2. Put some chemical, or some Teflon coating, on it to prevent it from getting stained. Any chemical engineers?
3. Cover the entire monument with glass cover and install HEPA filters all around it. (its funny, but atleast I'm trying).
4. Sell it to the USA. Let them figure out what to do with It. I'm sure they'll do well. (chuckles)

Well what do you guys think?

For your question, what I can say is... it all depends on government. Definitely our government would take care of this...






Answer :
a third of the tourism dollars should go into its care and preservation.
You are right. It is a testament to beauty and love and is one of the wonders of the world for its architecture and magnificence.

petition the government to divert the fees required to visit the Taj into a foundation for its preservation. Send out invitations for proposals as to how to achieve this.Choose the most appropriate tender.
