Britain's Prince William and his wife Kate are on a seven-day official tour to India and Bhutan. After a cricket match for charity with Sachin and budding cricketers, they were introduced to Bollywood stars at a Gala dinner on Sunday. The itinerary of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge included travel to New Delhi where they had lunch with Prime Minister Modi. They then headed to Kaziranga National Park and have wrapped up their visit in Thimphu, capital of the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan. They will now head to Taj Mahal which Princess Diana visited in 1992.
"It's a beautiful place, stunning designs in there," Prince William told reporters after the couple spent about half an hour inside the mausoleum, famous for its pure white marble.
The Duchess said it had been "incredible learning about the romance of the building and its really beautiful architecture".
