Re: India- One picture per Day

^^ Thanks.
There are other threads to post the pictures you talked about. like i mentioned in the first post, this thread is only one good pic per day of India.
You can open a day to day pictures thread too, that would be a good idea.

Re: India- One picture per Day

True, it takes a week to see my city itself.
there are so many different cultures and architectures thats why people make multiple visits to see the country.
Infact there are i think 3 taj mahal look alike buildings in India not counting the new replica ones.

Well people make replicas in terms of pandals or just for decorations. Other historical buildings who look like taj mahal are because it was considered the marvel in architecture and because a lot of people in olden days couldnt afford to go see real taj mahal. infact they made a 1/3 replica of taj mahal in bengladesh so that their poor people can see it without having to go to agra.

Legand has it that shahjahan wanted to build a black marble Taj across the river with a silver bridge connecting it. but before he could do that his son imprisoned/killed him.
