NEW DELHI (AP) - Arnold Schwarzenegger's dream of visiting the
Taj Mahal has been dashed.

The former California governor traveled to the Indian city of
Agra on Friday, the one day each week the monument is closed to
tourists because of Muslim prayers at a nearby mosque.

His tour guide Nitin Singh said the movie star was disappointed
and had to view the Taj Mahal from a nearby road.

Schwarzenegger took pictures with his cellphone and posed for
photos with the Taj as the backdrop.

He is in India for an environmental conference.

He told a TV channel he would consider acting in Bollywood if
offered an interesting script with a good director.

"I'll be back," he told the cheering studio audience.
