Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness. 

~ Frank Gehry

Rajasthan is a place of exquisite architecture and rich culture. The medieval sandstone edifices and monuments in various cities and forts of Rajasthan is a fusion of European and Islamic architecture with Hindu Rajput style. Hence, the moment I saw this week’s photo challenge theme ‘intricate‘ I could immediately relate with it nothing but the fine stone detailing I observed on several palatial facades, walls and interiors of age-old Rajasthani architectures. This one is from the royal palace inside Meherangarh Fort, Jodhpur.

    1. Yes …without any sophisticated tools they used to create such delicate lattice work manually and that too with such high level of accuracy… the very thought of it amazes me too. Thank you
