2) Hawaii Mahal

The Hawaiian Mahal (English: "Palace of Spirits" or "Breeze Palace") is a castle in Jaipur, India, about 200 miles [300 kilometres] from the capital Delhi. The palace, built of red and pink sandstone, sits on the outskirts of Jaipur's City Palace and extends to Zenana, or women's rooms.


After a 50-year hiatus, the Mahal rehabilitation work began in 2006 to provide for the memorial's refurbishment at a cost of approximately R4,568 million. The corporate sector has contributed to the preservation of Jaipur's historical monuments, and the Indian Trust Unit has welcomed the preservation of the Hawa Mahal.

The palace is an outgrowth of the larger structure. This typical visitor centre includes carved screens, small toilets, and an arched roof. Beautiful hanging models adorn the monument.

Inside the palace is a cannon known as "Jaivana" (Jaivana Cannon), which was made up of fortresses and was the largest cannon fired in the world at the time. Jaigarh Fort and Amer Fort are linked by underground corridors and are treated as a single complex.

4) Jantar Mantar

is a large triangular gnomon with a hypotenuse parallel to the Earth's axis used as an equinoctial sundial.

A circle quadrant, similar to the plane of the equator, can be found on the other side of the gnomon. This tool is intended to measure the time of day, the equivalent of a second, and the Sun's and other celestial bodies' reduction.

There were five Jantar Mantras in India, the largest of which was in Jaipur and included numerous metals as well as the world's largest stone sundial.

Because the Jantar Mantar in Mathura was demolished just before the 1857 uprising, there are currently only four Jantar Mantars available. The UNESCO World Heritage Site Vrihat Samrat Yantra is a sundial that is said to give local time with an accuracy of 2 seconds.

Vaishno Devi

The Vaishno Devi shrine is found in the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir. The small town of Katra is the only way to reach the temple. The city is located on a very high plateau and is located in the foothills of the Himalayas low in the Trikuta region.

Similarly, the case is about the temple of Vaishnavdevi, located about 40 miles [61 km] from Jammu, at an altitude of about 5,500 feet [5,200 m]. The precise location of the mountain site is 14 km from the city of Katra. In reaching this point, the experience is completely different.

The spectacular views of the valleys, the lush vegetation, the swaying sounds of bees and the chirping of birds, the echoes of devotees "Jai Mata ki", "Jai Mata Di", Jai Jai Maiya and so on, always the way and the water falling with its silver glow is not to be missed.

All of that is worth seeing and watching from a distance from the mad crowd, the endless sounds of modern technology and cars. To reach the top of the hill one has to go up any of the routes found there. Devotees from all over India and abroad come here to have the 'Darshan' of the Goddess in charge of the hills.

The Pilgrims of the previous day used to start their journey during the days of ‘Navaratri’ (a special night in September) and continue for three months in a row. During these three months in Katra, Vaishnavdevi and other temples hold many beautiful programs dedicated to the Goddess.

'Homos' and 'Yagnas' (traditions) are celebrated by devotees and pilgrims. There is an undeniable belief about sacred places or Teerthasthal that they provide much-needed help, peace, and happiness to the visitor who has come under the protection of the Virgin from the daily turmoil of life.

 Before going to Darshan of Goddess one should bathe in various forms.

There are various baths designed for the same purpose. There is also a ‘Charanganga’ order from the sacred cave. People can use this water for bathing. After the guests sit down according to the serial number on the given slip and wait for their chance to have a Darshan of Goddess.

 It should be noted that pilgrims are not allowed to carry any leather goods, cigarettes or any other alcoholic beverages while visiting the sanctuary.

At the entrance to the cave, there is a large stone lying called the body of Bhairav. There is a continuous flow of water from this cave. One will not be able to stand straight anywhere in the cave. In fact nobody can withstand the rigors of the shape of the cave, the sanctuary, and other objects in Vaishnavdevi.

The only one who has been given the grace of the Queen in her Darshan can understand this natural state. Here in the cave of the hills, the goddess Vaishnavdevi leads the god to his abode on earth by the Mahalakshmi, Mashasaraswati, and Mahakali species.

Some people say that of the three deities in existence, the most prominent person in the body is the goddess Vaishnavdevi. Speaking of the cave, space would be enough for 3-4 people. Sitting right here in the same place Pundit takes the offerings of the devotees to the Goddess and gives the devotees the 'Prasad'.

After taking Darshan people to have to go out despite the new exit, which was made a few years ago to make it easier for travelers through the Shrine Board. After leaving the temple the people worshiped the little girls and worshiped Puri and Halwah (prasad). After visiting the goddess Vaishnavdevi, the people begin their journey back to Katra with Darshan of Bhairavnath where their journey ends.

Ellora Caves

The caves of Ellora are twenty-eight kilometers (18 miles) from Aurangabad. The road passes through the Daultabad fort. 

The Ellora Cave Temples are the product of three religious denominations — Buddhism, Brahmanism, and Jainism, which contain intricate carvings of gods and goddesses and magnificent monuments to three major independent religions.

Each program had its own architectural style and Ellora introduced a variety of styles on the side. Carpentry work, too, raises controversial issues. Slope excavation is widespread, from north to south, about two miles [2 km]. 

There are 34 caves in total: 12 Buddhist caves (500-750 AD), 17 Hindu caves (600-870 AD), and 5 Jain villages (800-1000 AD). The caves are reckoned in chronological order, starting with the ancient Buddhist caves in the south and finally.

Buddhist Caves:

Buddhist caves are the first of the Ellora Caves, from 500 to 750 AD. All but cave 10 are viharas, used for study, meditation, community culture, food, and sleep.

The caves are gradually becoming larger and more ornate as they move north, explained by the aristocrats of the growing need to compete with Hinduism in defense. The first Hindu caves in Ellora date from 600 AD, in the middle of the Buddhist period.

Cave 1 is a wild vihara with eight tiny monks that are very small statues. It may have served as a repurchaser for large halls.

Cave 2 is very impressive. The large central room, supported by a 12-square-foot pillar, is filled with statues of Buddhist statues. The entrance to the sanctuary is filled with a muscular iPadmapani, holding a lotus, and the ruined Maitreya, the Buddha of the Future. They both go along with their partners. Inside the temple is a Buddha sitting on a lion's throne.

Caves 3 and 4 have a similar design to Cave 2, but they are in poor condition.

The 5th largest cave in the series, is the viahra, 35.66 meters by 17 meters (117 ft. By 56 ft.), And in addition there are two separate spaces. Twenty-four pillars hold the roof. The interior seems to indicate that it was used as a guest house or as a class of novitiates. There is a common image of the Buddha in the church.

Cave 6 was carved over 600 years ago and is home to two of the most beautiful sculptures in Ellora. On the left is the goddess Tara, who has a powerful but kind speech. His opponent on the right is Mahamayuri, a Buddhist goddess of learning, depicted as a peacock. The diligent student sits at his desk below. Notably, Mahamayuri has a very similar Hindu partner, Saraswati.

Caves No. 7, 8, 9 is not to be seen.

The most beautiful 10th cave dates back to the early 700s and is known as the Carpenter's Cave because of its imitation of a stone pillar on the roof. Finally, a seated Buddha sits on a throne in front of a large stone stamp.

Hindu Caves:

Created during the prosperity and revival of Hinduism, Hindu caves represent a completely different style of creative and creative vision than Buddhist caves. Hindu temples are carved from top to bottom and require several generations of planning and integration to build.

There are 17 Hindu caves in total (numbers 13 to 29), dated between 600 and 870 AD. They live in the center of the cave, gathered around the famous temple of Kailasa.

In contrast with the quiet and modest Buddhists in the ancient caves, the walls of Hindu caves are covered with lively representations of events from Hindu texts. All the caves are dedicated to the god Shiva, but there are also other images of Vishnu and his various births.

The cave dates back to the early 600 days and was transformed into a Buddhist vihara. Its towering walls are adorned with elaborate fences and the entrance to the sanctuary is protected by the river goddess Ganga and Juna. Inside, the alcove shelters fertility goddesses with seven large breasts that hold tiny babies in their lap. To their right appears the feature of the Ganesh women and the beloved goddess of death, Kala and Kali.

Cave 15 was also a former Buddhist cave accepted by the Hindus. The ground floor is particularly unattractive, but the upper floor has a beautiful view of Ellora. On the right is a series of panels depicting the formation of Vishnu or ten avatars, giving the cave its name, Das Avatara.

The right panel of the antechamber shows the rise of Shaivism in the region at the time - Shiva comes out of the ring while his rivals Brahma and Vishnu stand in humility and supplication. The most beautiful statue of this cave is on the left wall of the room: it shows Shiva as Nataraja, Cosmic Dancer.

The most famous Hindu cave (Cave 16) is by no means a cave, but it is a magnificent temple carved in solid rock, very close to the independent temples of that time. It represents Mount Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva, and is called Kailashnath, Kailash, or Kailasa Temple. At first, it had thick white coat coats to make it look like a snowy mountain.

The Kailash Temple is a magnificent structure, with delightful landscapes and various sculptures. It is believed that it was started by Rashtrakuta's king Krishna I (756-773). Construction was a human endeavor - it involved the removal of 250,000 tons of rock, took 100 years to complete, and covered twice the size of the Parthenon in Athens. Many other Hindu caves stretch the mountain north of Kailash, but only three must-sees: 21, 25, and 29.

Cave 21, Ramesvara, dates to the late 500s and is thought to be the ancient Hindu cave in Ellora. It contains beautiful carvings, including river goddesses, guardians of two doors, and other loving couples surrounding the walls of the porch.

Cave 25 depicts the sun-god Surya driving his chariot early in the morning.

Above this, the trail quickly descends down the gorge, below the waterfall of the year, and then back to the 29th cave, Dhumar Lena. Dating since the late 500s, there is an unusual plan made for the cross. Two lions guarded its three steps. Inside, the walls are covered with large frames.

 To the left of the door, Shiva kills the demon Andhaka, then defeats Ravana's many armed attempts to move him and Parvati to the top of Mount Kailash. Don't miss his lump on the ground to exterminate the demon! On the south side, Shiva plays Parvati by grabbing his arm as he prepares to throw dice in the game.

Jain Caves:

Jain caves, dating to the late 800s and 900s, are 2 km north along the asphalt road. They reflect the diversity of Jain philosophy and culture, including the strong sense of self-sacrifice combined with the elaborate decoration. They are not as big as the others, but they contain detailed works of art.

 Many Jain caves had rich paintings on their roofs, fragments of which are still visible. Most notable of this group is Cave 32, Indra Sabha, a small temple of Kailash. The ground floor is clear but the upper floor has elaborate carvings, including a beautiful lotus flower on the roof. 

Two Tirthankaras monitor the entry of the central temple. To the right is the naked Gomatesvara, who meditates deeply in the forest - so much so that the vineyards grow on his legs and the animals, snakes, and scorpions crawl at his feet.

Ajanta Leni

The Buddhist caves painted by Ajanta Caves, only 59 kilometers from Jalgoan (a railway station in Delhi-Bombay and Allahabad-Bombay main railway line) and from Aurangabad 104 km (from Ellora 100 km).

At the end of the seventh century, Buddhism began to decline in its native land and its shrines were demolished. For a thousand years, sleeping Ajanta was buried on the slopes of the forest in the western mountain forest, until 1819 it was discovered by accident.

A single cluster of rock-shaped rock climbing over a gorge to a height of 76.20 meters (250 ft.) Makes it ideal for a monastery sanctuary. With a space limit, the caves should have been much closer together than Ellora's.

Most of them date back to antiquity, the oldest of pre-Christian times. The values   of the construction and construction of stone temples surpass the addition of a third art, painting, which, above all else, has given Ajanta its international reputation. .

Upon seeing the gates of the temples the visitor may wonder about the Profusion of country themes and the murals. She can be frustrated by the unrestricted vivacity of women's figures, the famous "Ajanta type" with well-rounded forms, dangling eyes, attractive mien and ample decoration.

The fact was that the artistic monks and their painters painted together and in equal measure the beauty of the female body and the spiritual beauty of the Bodhisattva.

There are thirty caves, some of which are unfinished and neglected. Sixteen contains murals, but the best work is to be found in caves 1, 2, 16, 17 and 19. The best sculptures are in Caves 1, 4, 17, 19, 24 and 26. is made in chronological order and has no relation to their chronological order.

It starts at the western edge of the rock, near the entrance. The current department does not seem to have been the first method of excavation.

Five caves, 9, 10, 19, 26, and 29, are chaitya halls. Some are vihars. As for the ancient artifacts (2nd BC to 2nd century AD), the formation of the Hinayana system, the arc Chaityas Caves 9 and 10, and the viharas 8, 12, 13, and 30. of the fifth and sixth centuries and made a series of Mahayana.

 In ancient times, each cave had a flight of stairs leading to a beautiful stream flowing deep through a narrow gorge. By the fall or in front of the cave most of these steps have been destroyed. The 1,2, 16, and 17 arc caves are illuminated by dot lamps, which are available for payment. Consumption is important.

The technique used by artists in ancient India is described in modern works of Aesthetics. First, clay, cow dung, and rice husks were placed on top of the selected rock and then pressed down. It forms a layer about one and a half inches in diameter.

 In this case the coat of the fine plow was spread out to obtain a smooth surface. The frames were painted with a brush and then dyed. The pigs used were of the simplest type of materials such as yellow earth, red Ocher, green rock crushed into burnt brick, black lamp, and copper oxide. The second was used. In this way, the structures were less visible.

Some brushes are used to complement the color until the image, in the language of ancient Aesthetics, "blooms". Finally, the relief of the plastic is achieved by blurring the black lines and capturing the highlights.

The central theme of the walls falls under two narrative scenes from the life of the Buddha and images of Jataka arguments. Within this spiritual framework, the whole race of life at that time is well covered.

Exposed to these walls is an image not only of either the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas, but of various spheres or types of people of various mental states, under the pressure of various emotions and expressed at all levels of society.

The paintings on the ceiling, unlike the ones on the wall, are especially decorative patterns. It includes geometric shapes, floral and decorative designs, flying figures of celestial beings, animals, birds, plants. A collection of panels or rooms, with enough variation in color schemes.
