Prince William and Kate Middleton are all set to make a pilgrimage to the beautiful Taj Mahal, where Princess Diana's memory is said to be kept alive, during their visit to India next month.

"Prince William feels incredibly lucky to visit a place where his mother's memory is kept alive by so many who travel there," Cambridges' communications secretary Jason Knauf said in a statement, E! Online reports.

He added twenty-four years on from Diana's visit to the Taj, the duke and the duchess are looking forward to seeing this beautiful place for themselves and creating some new memories.

During their trip, the 33-year-old Duke of Cambridge and the Duchess of Cambridge will pay tribute to the 166 people killed in the 2008 attacks at the Mumbai hotel. They will lay a wreath and meet the staff who helped protect guests during the attack.

The royal couple, who will also pay visit to Kaziranga National Park in Assam, will also be visiting Paro Taktsang, the Tiger's Nest monastery in Bhutan.

It is being said that Princess Diana was photographed at the Taj Mahal during her visit to India in 1992, an image that has become famous for embodying the Princess but also for the demise of her marriage with Prince Charles.

William and Middleton will visit the monument of love in April, 24 years later Princess Diana had visited.
