The given statement is True.
Shah Jahan and his ancestors were particularly interested in art, architecture, and literature. Shah Jahan's reign is often considered the "golden age" of Mughal architecture. Shah Jahan built Agra's Moti Masjid (Pearl Mosque). Several architectural wonders were erected during the reign of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor. The most famous of these is the Taj Mahal. Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal to commemorate the memory of his late wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The Peacock Throne was a jewel-studded throne used by the king. Unfortunately, the Shah of Iran looted it and took it to his country. He also built Moti Masjid, Juma Masjid, Red Fort at Agra, and Red Fort at Delhi. He also built a new city as his capital and called it Shahjahanabad.
