Dating from the late 7th century, they are attributed to the reign of King Mahendravarman I and his son Narasimhavarman I (630-680 AD) of the Pallava Kingdom. Photo shows the Dharmaraja, Bhima, Nakula, Draupadi and Sachadeva Rathas; the structures are without any precedence in Indian temple architecture and are completely carved out of a single rock each. Remarkably well preserved for monuments that are over 1300 years old, they withstood the ravages of the Tsunamis of the 13th Century and 2004. They however display the effects of wind and sand erosion. These are not temples as they are unfinished and were never consecrated. They are part of the UNESCO World Heritage site at Mahabalipuram.

The cenotaph of Maharaja Jaswant Singh displays portraits of the rulers and Maharajas of Jodhpur.
The Purana Quila, or Old Fort, stands as a testament to Delhi's rich and tumultuous history. Nestled within its fortified walls lies a treasure trove of architectural marvels, each telling a unique tale of the city's past. Among these architectural gems is a magnificent gateway, its intricate details and towering structure captivating the imagination of visitors from around the world.\n\nThis gateway, though often overshadowed by the more famous Red Fort, is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Its design is a harmonious blend of Persian and Indian styles, reflecting the cosmopolitan nature of the Mughal empire. The towering dome, a symbol of Mughal power and authority, rises majestically above the surrounding structures. Its intricate carvings, adorned with floral motifs and geometric patterns, showcase the exquisite craftsmanship of the artisans who created it.\n\nThe gateway's exterior is a testament to the passage of time. The weathered stone, marked by the elements, tells a story of centuries of resilience and endurance. The cracks and fissures that have developed over the years add to its character, lending it a sense of authenticity and history. Yet, despite the ravages of time, the gateway's beauty remains undiminished.
