One of the many watch towers patrolling the edges of the temple city of Amber. There are multiple walk ways in and around Amber, the whole circumference, various passage ways, secret tunnels and water channels, Man Singh I, really did splurge on creating a splendid home. #Heritage #Security #Passages #WatchTowers #KachwahaClan #Design #Aesthetic #Historic #Beaut #LimeAndStoneMasonry #Masonry #TraditionalBuildingMateiral #BuiltHeritage #Aesthetic #Chatris #Amber #TheTempleTownOfAmber #Jaipur #JaipurDiaries #JaipurJournal #Rajasthan #India #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Travelogue #TravelDiaries

Some incredibly fine and eclectic hand drawn and painted architectural details of a pair of Chatris from my favourite wall in Jaipur! Details of a enchanted fresco entailing the life journey of Lord Adinath, the first Tirthankar of the Jain faint at this humble Shree Digambar Jain temple, Sanghi Ji in Manohari ka Rasta in the walled city of Jaipur. #Heritage #Historic #Art #Miniature #MiniaturePainting #LifeImitatesArt #ArtImitatesLife #Jainism #Jain #Holy #Faith #Religion #Community #Details #GodIsInTheDetails #ArchitecturalElements #ArchitectureInPaintings #Architecture #Chatris #Rajputana #Jaipur #JaipurDiaries #JaipurJournal #Rajasthan #India #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Travelogue #TravelDiaries #ArchitecturalElements #ArchitectureInPaintings #Architecture #Chatris #Rajputana #Jaipur #JaipurDiaries #JaipurJournal #Rajasthan #India #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Travelogue #TravelDiaries (at Maniharon ka Rasta)

These incredibly refined chatris dating back to the 18th Century at the Digambar Jain Bhattarak ji Ki Nasiya were established with the marble Pād-Chin by the bhattrak ( a designation for cladded saints from Digambar Jain sect from Southern India) in reverence of their Guru.
