If we focus on the architectural details of the Shyama Raya Temple, we observe that the structure is of squarish configuration, and each side measures about 11.4m. The roof of the building is flat curved ‘Chala’ type and above the roof rise five beautiful pinnacles, named the ‘Pancha Ratna’. The detailed planning and effort and obviously the successful execution of such diminutive designs on the exterior wall surface are undoubtedly praiseworthy.

Built in the fourteenth century by the Gonda kings, the iconic Madwa Mahal in Kawardha houses the image of Lord Shiva. Though being a center of devotion, the place is famed for its erotic carvings of Kamasutra. Madwa Mahal remains today as a charming amalgamation of faith and Kawardha’s glorious past.

Kharod appears to be a major centre in the ancient kingdom of Dakshina-Kosala. A major dynasty that ruled this kingdom–situated in the often neglected Chhattisgarh was the Panduvamshi frequently referred to as the ‘Pandava’ dynasty in Sanskrit inscriptions. Inscriptions tell us that the capital of the Panduvamshi territory was Shripura or today’s Sirpur (70 odd kilometers from Kharod). Historians also wonder if they are related to the more well-known Somavamshis of Orissa. The traditional geographical name for this region is the Mekala. Mekala is dotted with lakes dug by Pandavas and medieval rulers.There is a Ramayana connection too. It is said that Kharod derives its name from Khara-Dushana, a demon pair who are killed by Rama and Lakshmana in the Dandakaranya (the forest of Rama's exile). .

🇮🇳❤️🇮🇳 . . #repost @sita_india ・・・ Sikandra, a village about five miles from Agra, and the burial-place of Akbar, is reached by two roads. The older one follows, to some extent, the alignment of the great military road to Lahore and Kashmir, planned by Babar and completed by his successors. A few of the Kos-Minars, pillars which marked off the kos- a distance of about two and a half miles- can still be seen along the road, or in the adjoining fields. Numerous remains of archæological interest are passed on the way of the old road. First the Delhi gate of the old city walls. About a mile further on the right-hand side, is a great walled enclosure, named after Ladli Begam, the sister of Abul Fazl, Akbar's famous Prime Minister and biographer. It formerly contained her tomb, as well as that of Sheikh Mubarak, her father, and of Faizi, her eldest brother. Many years ago the whole enclosure was sold by Government.
