Shah Jahan had the Taj Mahal built in memory of his wife. The mausoleum used stones, gems & exqusite materials transported from many places & the construction took 2o years to complete. The Red Fort & Jama Masjid in Delhi were also built by him. He thus contributed immensely to architecture in the Mughal period.
The Mughal's cultural legacy was primarily art and architecture.

The mughals contributed architecture in many ways.One example of this is when Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal in rememberance of his wife.
