Akbar the great has been known for a great warrior in
the medieval world. But some other evidences indicate

Elephant duel has been a shared tradition for both India and Thailand. Shan Jahan himself love watching elephant duel from his loyal balcony.

Jantra Mantra

Jantra Mantra which is derived from the words meaning 'instrument' and 'formula' is a giant piece of architecture whose sole purpose is to act as an instrument for measuring the sun, stars and time. However, with its abstract forms and weird sweeping architecture Jantra Mantra becomes an instrument of magic, rather than geometry, aimed at the stars.

Folly : The Open Hand Monument by Fame & Don


There has been critiques on Le Corbusier's Chandigarh design and its propriety. Nek Chand, on the other hand, is praised as contemporary artist who brought about an appropriate venue, though unintentional it may seem, is performing more successfully than that of Le Corbusier. Open Hand Monument is renovated to revive Le Corbusier's initial idea of public space. In this manifesto, Nek Chand's surface treatment design is integrated in the area to justify the vague landscape.

Folly- Eclipse at JantraMantra
by O.J. and Neen




A Sultan wishes to receive blessing from the Moon and the Sun in an eclipse night.
Unfortunately, He could not bare the brightness of direct sight
so he started to climb up the steps,
when he reached the top, he look down onto the surrounded water,
and pray to the reflection of the eclipse
