India

The Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus of Mumbai exhibits an important interchange of influences from Victorian Italianate Gothic revival architecture, and from Indian traditional buildings. It became a symbol for Mumbai as a major mercantile port city on the Indian Subcontinent within the British Commonwealth.

The Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus is an outstanding example of late 19th Century railway architecture in the British Commonwealth, characterized by Victorian Gothic Revival and traditional Indian features, as well as its advanced structural and technical solutions.

The vittala temple is the most magnificent of the religious edifices at Hampi, stands on the southern bank of the Tungabhadra. This Temple potrays the high watermark of perfection of the Vijayanagara style and one may well say that there is no other building which could stand in comparison with its florid magnificence. The temple stands in a large rectangular enclosure (164m x 94.5m).

Himachal - In the Lap of Snow

Christ Church, Shimla, originally uploaded by Carol PostCrossing Journey.

*The Place; Himachal is essentially a mountain state, which literally means “In the Lap of Snow”, set amidst the high mountain ranges of Dauladhar, Pir Panjal and Great Himalayas. Himachal is blessed with some of the most spectacular landscapes with mighty snow peaks, deep gorges, lush green valleys, flower filled meadows, misty woods, fast flowing icy rivers, glaciers, enchanting lakes and part of the Tibetan Plateau.

*The Church; Christ Church was the first church to be built in Simla and the second in the whole of northern India. The silhoutte of this can be seen on the skyline for miles around. It was designed by Colonel JT Boileau in 1844. In Shimla’s 75 years of reigning as summer capital, a long line of officials and other notables of the Raj came to the church for their Sunday prayers.
