Itinerario

1. Chand Baori is said to be named after a local ruler called Raja Chanda. However, no epigraphic evidence has been found regarding the construction of the Chand Baori or the adjoining Harshat Mata Temple. Based on similarities in style and carvings with the terraced temples of Paranagar and Mandore, the Baodi can be dated to 8th-9th century. It was likely constructed before the temple. The Chand Baori is one of the few stepwells that has "two classical periods of water building in a single setting". according to Morna Livingston in Steps to Water: The Ancient Stepwells of India.

2. The Harshat Mata Temple is a largely ruined Hindu temple in the Abhaneri village of Rajasthan. The temple is now dedicated to a goddess called Harshat Mata, although some art historians theorize that it was originally a Vaishnavite shrine. The original temple appears to have been built in the panchayatana style, which features a main shrine surrounded by four subsidiary shrines. Only parts of the main shrine now survive and they have been ruined and modified over several centuries, with the tall shikhara tower replaced by a roof-dome. Much of the platform survives, with fragments of carved stones from the original structure, but most of the sculptures have been removed to the museums in Amber and Jaipur.

About Jaipur

Jaipur, la Città Rosa del Rajasthan, è una capitale reale di forti, palazzi e bazar sullo sfondo delle aspre colline Aravalli.

Le mura della città vecchia racchiudono una griglia di strade dipinte di rosa terracotta, tracciata nel Settecento dal maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. Al suo cuore, il Palazzo della Città mescola stili rajput e moghul, la facciata a nido d'ape dell'Hawa Mahal, il Palazzo dei Venti, guarda dall'alto la strada, e i giganteschi strumenti astronomici di Jantar Mantar seguono ancora il sole.

Top-ranked sights in Jaipur: Palace of Wind (Hawa Mahal), City Palace, Jal Mahal (Water Palace).
