: Knowledge Traditions & Practices of India: Architecture (2): Medieval & Colonial ArchitectureJunagarh is the name of a Fort (durga) constructed by the Rajputs: creative builders who erected some of the most illustrious and impressive forts and palaces throughout northern India.鈥擳he Junagarh fort, located in Bikaner, is one of the most impressive fort complexes in India. It was built by Raja Rai Singh in 1588. It is one of those few forts that are not built on a hilltop. There are 37 red sandstones (Dulmera) and marble inside the premises of the fort, which include palaces with intricately carved windows, beautiful balconies, towers, temples and pavilions.
The highlights of the Junagarh fort are Candra Mahal, decorated beautifully with mirrors, paintings and carved marble panels, the Ph奴l Mahal, the Karan Mahal and the multi-storeyed An奴p Mahal, which was once used as the governance chambers for the rulers.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
