Le decorazioni esterne sono impressionanti come gli interni e sono coerenti con la superficie e la proporzionalità dei disegni è meticolosamente pianificata ed eseguita.

La vernice era il principale costituente per le decorazioni. In conformità con il divieto della dottrina islamica, non vi sono forme antropomorfiche in nessuna parte dello schema di progettazione. Ci sono più versetti del Corano usati all’interno del complesso. La camera interna è straordinariamente decorata con gemme preziose e semipreziose. Geometricamente a forma di ottagono, questo spazio ha più punti di ingresso. Dopo aver visitato gli interni, sperimenta i salubri giardini del Taj Mahal durante un tour dei luoghi da vedere ad Agra.

Queste strutture indicano il passato glorioso che esisteva durante il periodo medievale e devono far parte di qualsiasi itinerario di luoghi da visitare ad Agra. Il Forte di Agra fu costruito nel 1565 sotto l’egida di Akbar. Situato sulla riva destra del fiume Yamuna, questo forte e il Taj formano un’unità di monumenti. Entrambe le strutture si completano a vicenda dato che si trovano nelle stesse vicinanze. Puoi entrare nel forte attraverso le porte Delhi o Amar Singh.

L’entrata più grande è la prima. Mentre entri nel forte attraverso la porta di Delhi, ti avvicini al portale interno. Chiamato anche Hathi Pol questo ingresso è magnifico.

C’erano diversi giardini costruiti sulle rive del fiume durante il regime di Mughal in tutti i posti da visitare ad Agra. Questo era l’ultimo di loro. Si ritiene che questo giardino sia stato costruito sotto l’egida di Babur. Il giardino fu inizialmente immaginato da Shah Jahan. Ha selezionato un punto ideale per la visualizzazione del fiume Yamuna. Voleva un giardino di piacere illuminato dai soffici raggi della luna. Quindi ha chiamato questo giardino Mehtab Bagh. Ci sono un sacco di piscine e padiglioni in giardino. I passaggi sono coperti di intonaco bianco. Ci sono molti alberi da frutto qui. Il giardino è stato realizzato come un’estensione dei giardini nel Taj Mahal. L’idea era di creare un giardino illuminato dalla luna. Di notte le piscine qui riflettono la vista del Taj Mahal.

Quando Shah Jahan voleva il Mehtab Bagh, voleva il giardino esclusivamente per sé. Voleva guardare i riflessi del Taj nelle pozze d’acqua e godersi la vista del fiume Yamuna. Il giardino è ora una delizia orticola. Ci sono decine di specie di piante qui. Il Mehtab Bagh è stato periodicamente restaurato dall’Archaeological Survey. È possibile raggiungere questo giardino su entrambi i lati del fiume. È possibile prendere un traghetto per alcuni minuti dal lato orientale del Taj Mahal per raggiungere questo giardino.

Parco Nazionale di Bandhavgarh

Bandhavgarh National Park

Bandhavgarh National Park si trova nello stato indiano centrale del Madhya Pradesh. Questo parco biodiverso è noto per la sua numerosa popolazione di tigri reali del Bengala, soprattutto nella zona centrale di Tala. Altri animali includono tigri bianche, leopardi e cervi. Il mix di foresta tropicale, alberi di sal e praterie ospita numerose specie di uccelli, tra cui l’aquila. A sud ci sono i resti dell’antico Forte di Bandhavgarh.


Il forte di Bandhavgarh si trova a Bandhavgarh nel distretto di Umaria del Madhya Pradesh, in India. Si trova sulla collina di Bandhavgarh, in aumento a 811 metri sul livello del mare, al centro del Parco Nazionale di Bandhavgarh. È circondato da un gran numero di colline più piccole separate da valli in leggera pendenza. Queste valli finiscono in piccoli prati paludosi, conosciuti localmente come “bohera”. Il forte è anche la patria di molte delle specie di avvoltoio in via di estinzione in India

Diverse dinastie hanno governato il forte: per esempio, Mauryans dal 3 ° secolo aC, governanti Vakataka del 3 ° -5 ° secolo, Sengars del 5 ° secolo, e Kalachuris dal 10 ° secolo. Nel 13 ° secolo, i Baghel presero il potere, regnando da Bandhavgarh fino al 1617, quando Maharaja Vikramaditya Singh trasferì la sua capitale a Rewa. Gli ultimi abitanti abbandonarono il forte nel 1935.

Durante il tour del forte di Bandhavgarh, si possono vedere animali selvatici come tigri, cuccioli e cervi. Inoltre, si possono vedere molte specie rare di uccelli come il Malabar pied hornbill, i falchi, 4 specie di avvoltoi e le tartarughe nuotare. Ad un certo punto si possono vedere anche i nidi di avvoltoio dall’alto. La collina è considerata la migliore per la fotografia di uccelli in volo, grazie al vantaggio di essere posizionata in alto. Questo rende il forte di Bandhavgarh un’aggiunta interessante per un tour della fauna selvatica del Parco Nazionale di Bandhavgarh.


Bandhavgarh National Park è uno dei santuari della vita selvaggia nello stato indiano del Madhya Pradesh. Il parco nazionale si trova a 197 km di distanza a nord-est di Jabalpur. Questo parco di vita selvatico deriva il suo nome da un antico forte nella zona. Il parco nazionale di Bandhawgarh appartiene alle catene montuose di Vindhyan nell’India centrale e vanta la più alta densità di popolazione di tigri del paese. Ora ci sono da 46 a 52 tigri che si possono vedere qui.
The Elusive White Tiger


Le foreste di Bandhavgarh sono le giungle della tigre bianca degli anni passati. Tuttavia, negli ultimi 50 anni non sono state segnalate tigri bianche in natura e si ritiene che in India siano state osservate meno di una dozzina in circa cento anni. Eppure, quando le tigri bianche sono state avvistate, era proprio qui a Bandhavgarh.

Un tempo riserva di caccia della famiglia reale di Rewa in tempi più recenti, Bandhavgarh è stato dichiarato parco nel 1968. Questo è anche il luogo in cui sono state scoperte le famose TIGRE BIANCHE di Rewa.


Girovagando per il parco nazionale di Bandhavgarh su un elefante, le probabilità di vedere una tigre sono abbastanza buone. Tra le altre attrazioni selvagge, Nilgai, Chausingha, Chital, Chinkara, Cinghiale e talvolta Fox o Sciacallo.
Nel Parco Nazionale di Bandhavgarh i visitatori possono essere introdotti su elefante indietro a parte i quattro ruote

Ram Raja Orcha

Madhukar Shah Ju Dev (1554-1592) was a devotee of Banke Bihari (Lord Krishna) while his wife Queen Ganesh Kunwari was a devotee of LordRam.One day the King and the Queen went to Lord Krishna’s temple but the temple had closed by that time. The queen urged the king to go back but the king wanted to stay. So both the king and queen decided to stay back. They joined a group of devotees who were singing and dancing in praise of Lord Krishna outside the temple and started singing and dancing. It is believed that Lord Krishna and Radha personified and danced with them and golden flowers were showered on them.

 

After this the king asked the queen to accompany him to Mathura but the queen wanted to go to Ayodhya. The queen was adamant at which the king said that “You keep praying to Ram but Ram never appears in front of us. If you want to go to Ayodhya then go, but return only when you have the child form of Ram with you.” The queen left the palace and started the journey to Ayodhya. She ordered her servants to start building a temple (Chaturbhuj Temple) for Lord Ram.

 

On reaching Ayodhya, the Queen started praying to Lord Ram. The Queen fasted and prayed for about a month but Lord Ram did not appeared. So she jumped into the river. Just then Lord Ram appeared in child form in the Queen’s lap. Lord Ram told the queen that she could ask for a boon, at which the queen asked Ram to come with her in child form to Orchha. Ram agreed to go but he put forth three conditions: “I will travel only in Pukh Nakshatra. When Pukh Nakshatra will end I will stop and resume only when Pukh Nakshatra sets in again. Secondly, once I reach Orchha, I will be the King of Orchha and Thirdly, the first place you seat me will be my final place.” The Queen agreed and started her journey. It took 8 months and 27 days for the queen to reach Orchha from Ayodhya on foot (between 1574 to 1575).

 

King Madhukar Shah meanwhile had a dream where Lord Banke Bihari scolded him on discriminating between Lord Ram and himself. King was very apologetic. When he woke up he found out that the queen was returning from Ayodhya. King apologized to the queen but she did not accept king’s apology. On returning to Orchha, the queen went back to her palace with baby Ram but Lord Ram transformed into an idol and got transfixed in the queen’s palace itself.

 

To this day the Ram Raja Temple is in the queen’s palace and not in the Chaturbhuj Temple .Additionally, as promised by the queen, Lord Ram is the King of Orchha, hence the name Ram Raja Temple
