Taj Mahal replica made from 10,000 wooden match-sticks


Retired cabinet-maker Ron Savory has created an exact replica of the Taj Mahal out of 10,000 wooden match-sticks.

Mr Savory, 70, says the model, which took him eight months to make, is a labour of love for his wife, Ann, and was inspired by reading a book about the building's history.

He said: "I read that Mughal emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal for his second wife who died in childbirth.
