Tori gate,
I was fascinated by the Floating Tori Gate , Itsukushima shrine located at the Miyajima Island, in Japan, when i saw this gate in pictures or on tv shows showcasing the cutlure of Japan . But when i personally had been to see this most iconic structure of the Shinto Shrine i was dumb struck at the view. The gate appears to float during the high tide and during the low the visitors can walk up to it for a magnificent close-up. This gate looks equally stunning during sunrise and sunset.
The Itsukushima Shrine is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is revered as a sacred place in ancient times and refered to as " Island of Gods". It was a total worth the visit here.
Make sure you visit this destination.

It's been long that a posted any photo of my travel here, this time I had been to Hawa Mahal in Jaipur, Rajasthan.

Though I had captured the photo of this monument a few months earlier, I have been posting it lately. Hawa Mahal distinctive landmark of Jaipur, and when you are here it is mandatory to visit this monument and get a picture clicked. This mesmerizing blend of art and architecture was built as an extension to the women's chambers , intended as viewing screen and a kind of architectural veil for the royal women to view the bazaar without themselves getting noticed. Though built in Rajput architecture, it has influence of Mughal architecture in it. You shouldn't miss this architectural marvel, when you are in Jaipur.

The main attraction of the temple is this Wheel, one among the 24 wheels, also used a sundial to calculate the accurate time of the day, just by analyzing the shadow cast by the spokes of the wheel. This marvelous structure is a best example for .
Though part of the is in ruins , this temple attracts many tourists towards it , I was one among them . The time I reached this temple there was a slight drizzle , which later subsided, giving me a chance to photograph such a beautiful picture of the wheel. Isn't it beautiful?!
