I am newly developing interest towards our priceless heritage.
Information provided through your essays will be one of the initial landmark of my journey.
Many many thanks and congratulations for you compilation.
Pointing that Shiva and Vishnu were less popular till 4th century was a striking comment to me.
Is there no sign of architecture during Vedic period, although its counted as rich period in literature.

I visited your site many times during my initial years of research in this subject.
Hence seeing my link in the same site is very pleasing.
As you also have similar tastes and passion so you know very well how much efforts go into documenting all these sites.
The best prize I can get for this is the appreciation from people like you.

About the photo of the chhatri of ahilya bai at maheshwar.
Actually it is the photo of the chhatri of malhar rao holkar which was built by ahilya bai holkar at Alampur (MP).
This is my own photo which was provided by me on gwaliorplus site.

The pictures are fantastic. As one enamoured with Lepakshi,I am delighted to see the photos.
But most important of all, the Nandi is missing and Rambha in Natya mandapam.
Also, Vastu Purusha & Padmini stree inside are important omissions.

I have just seen your site and the related Italian version.

I am fascinated by your sites about Indian temples, thank you for your efforts!
Unfortunately I could not open the Pallava site with Mandagapattu and Dalavanur.
I am researching about Indian nose ornaments and would like to ask if you have seen nose ornaments on sculptures prior to 15th century?
If so, please name the localities.
I try to find out whether nose rings are original to India or have been adopted from outside, i.e. Moghul or Persians.
Thank you. Best regards

excellent site. I am at bijapur and heading to bidar and i think your site will be useful there.
The site is perfect designed in terms of your focus. There are no random links etc. many thanks for that.
Hopefully you can supplement these snaps by slightly bigger snaps, these are too small to bring out the majesty of these monuments.

Dear Sir,
I am a final year law student. I love taking day trips to places in Bengal with archeological relics.
I have friends who stay in Chinsurah but they do not know about this monument.
Can you please tell me more about Tribeni.
Thank You.

Really appreciated your efforts on bring light on Indian Art & Architecture. Just a small correct on the above image.
It is davarapal of Siva. You can see trident & Drum (attributes of lord shiva) associated with him.
Coming to Dwaravapala, in general one hold damaru, trisul, gada and the other holds damaru, snake (naga) and gada.
I visited many Kakatiyan temples and the cross legged posture is quite common in Kakatiyan style.
In one of the Chalukyan (which influenced kakatiyan art) temple also observed the same posture.
Last Sunday only I was there, there is no much change, expect they are buliding a shed (I guess) to store all the loose sclupture.

My name is Fabiola Ferrari, Italian photographer.
I have been collaborating for many years with Italian and foreign publishers.
Such as Lonely Planet, Footprint, Michelin, Let's Go.
I kindly wanted your collaboration to identify my photos taken in your marvelous and interesting India.
These photos will be published on tourism magazines and school books, the identifications must be precise.
I thank you a lot in advance for your collaboration and I am happy that in a small way I can make some publicity to India.
Best regards from Fabiola Ferrari.

Amit,
Thanks for your mail which reached me in New York.
I'm spending all of May in the US which means that sadly I'm going to miss your photographic show.
This is a great shame since I still have lots of affection for the Bengali temples and their terracotta art.
Hope the show finds a good audience.
All good wishes,

Thank you very much for your heartwarming and informative reporting on the treasures of Bidar.
Twice in my life time, I spent approximately six months in Bidar. Once as a kid aged 7 years old.
A second time as a trainee pilot at the Air Force base.
My father was a government employee. We used the cannon balls as door stops in our government provided quarters.
Our servant regularly took me to the fort that overlooked the railway tracks.
There while watching the trains we played with the heavy rings that formed the part of cannons.
I have walked the empty halls of the madarasa. But no one took time to explain the historic significance of these landmarks.
Probably few people knew the value of these treasures.
Next time I am in India, I will make it a point to visit Bidar, Raichur and Hyderabad to get in touch with my historical heritage.
Thanks, once again!

And I'll be sure to pass it on to the Debroy family - I know they'll be thrilled to see their temple online!
