Guest guest Posted April 22, 2003 Report Share Posted April 22, 2003 Namaskar Mitra, last mail on Saurashtra Darshan pics 48 of them spread over Palitana, Adalaj Vav a five storeyed underground well. 1.Hatheesingh Jain temple, 4 Amdavad- constructed around 1850, http://esamskriti.com/html/new_photo.asp?subcatid=73 2.Palitana temples 30 - Located on Shetrunjaya hill are 863 temples built over a span of 900 years. The temples are exquisitely carved in marble, veritable prayers in stone. http://esamskriti.com/html/new_photo.asp?subcatid=74 3. Adalaj Vav - Step-Well, 14 Amdavad - Built in 1498 by Ruda, wife of Vaghela Chief Virasimha. The octagonal shaft is 5 storied, spiral staircases on western and eastern sides. As you shall see Adalaj is richly carved, every pillar & wall surface covered with leaves & flowers, birds & fishes and friezes of ornamental designs. The entire structure is in stone. It made me wonder how must have workers taken the stone down 5 levels and then worked upon them, some workmanship! http://esamskriti.com/html/new_photo.asp?subcatid=78 Hope you enjoyed seeing the Saurashtra Darshan pics, please visit the area it is super, best time Nov to Jan.
