    That depends on which Taj Mahal you are referring to:

    The one above is priced at about $300 from Wal-Mart as of June 29, 2014. It is frivolous but a much more realistic endeavor than attempting to put a price on the Taj Mahal in India.

    If you want to buy or know the price of the one in India, there is no way realistic of pricing it, except perhaps if China, Inc. wants to buy it. They can buy just about anything and often do.

    A world heritage site has no realistic monetary value, although it can help the tourist trade flourish in some areas, including India.

    "The value of the Taj Mahal varies from $20 billion to $ 5.5 trillion."...It's not that simple.
