  • History Jahangir Receives Prince Khurram at Ajmer on His Return From
    AJMER One of the major cities in the Indian state of Rajasthan and the centre of the eponymous Ajmer District. According to the 2011 census, Ajmer had a population of 542,321 in the city, 551,101 including its suburbs.[2] The city was established as "Ajayameru" by a Shakambhari Chahamana (Chauhan) ruler, either Ajayaraja I or Ajayaraja II, and served as the Chahamana capital until the 12th century CE.[3][4] Ajmer is surrounded by the Aravalli Mountains. It is the base for visiting Pushkar (11 km), an ancient Hindu pilgrimage city, famous for the temple of Lord Brahma, and also a pilgrimage centre for the shrine of the Sufi Saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti. Ajmer has been selected as one of the heritage cities for the HRIDAY - Heritage City Development and Augmentation Yojana scheme of Government of India. History Jahangir receives Prince Khurram at Ajmer on his return from the Mewar campaign Ajmer was originally known as Ajayameru.] The 12th century text Prithviraja Vijaya states that the Shakambhari Chahamana (Chauhan) king Ajayaraja II (ruled c. 1110 – 1135 CE) established the city of Ajayameru.[4] Historian Dasharatha Sharma notes that the earliest mention of the city's name occurs in Palha's Pattavali, which was copied in 1113 CE (1170 VS) at Dhara. This suggests that Ajmer was founded sometime before 1113 CE.[7] A prashasti (eulogistic inscription), issued by Vigraharaja IV and found at Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra, states Ajayadeva (that is, Ajayaraja II) moved his residence to Ajmer.[3] The later text Prabandha-Kosha states that it was the 8th century king Ajayaraja I who commissioned the Ajayameru fort, which later came to be known as the Taragarh fort of Ajmer.[4] According to historian R.

The Turks who came to India towards the beginning of 13 th C.A.D., had not only a well-defined faith in Islam to which they were deeply attached, they also had definite ideas of Government, Arts, and Architecture etc. The Hindus had also developed their own style, although their conce pts and designs differed from those of the Muslims. A synthesis of these two types, however, was soon evolved due to a number of factors. The Muslims after firmly establishing themselves in India employed Hindu master craftsman for designing and constructi ng their buildings. These craftsmen naturally introduced the characteristics of Hindu architecture like solidity and grace, while adopting Muslim features like arches, domes, minarets, geometrical designs etc. Keywords: Delhi sultanate, architecture, Khil jis, Tughlaqs, Lodi's.

  • Temple Architecture
    Temple Architecture The temple architecture in India developed over thousands of years & its architectural evolution took place within the boundaries of strict models derived solely from religious considerations. The broad geographical diversity, cultural, racial, historical & linguistic differences between the northern plains & the Southern peninsula of India resulted in district architectural styles. The Basic form of the Hindu Temple 1) A cave like Sanctum which is known as ‘Garbhagriha’. This is a place made to house the main icon of the temple 2) The entrance is through a doorway which is reached through a mandapa. This ‘Mandapa’ is like pillared hall that incorporates space for a large number of worshippers. 3) Upper & outer pyramidal or mountain like spire of temple is known as ‘Shikhara’ in North India and ‘Vimana’ in South India. 4) The Vahan – which is placed axially before sanctum. Vahan is the mount or vehicle of the temple’s main deity. 5) Sometimes Mandapa leads up to a hall, which in turn goes into a Maha Mandapa where devotees congregate for prayers. The Indian temple architecture classify temples into 3, different styles as follows 1) The Nagara or ‘Northern Style’ , 2) The Dravida or ‘Southern Style’ , 3) The Vesara or ‘Hybrid Style’ The Nagara or Northern Style temple architecture: • It is characterized by a ‘beehive’ shaped tower • This style of temple architecture was popular in Northern India • Depending on the shapes of the Shikhara there are different subdivisions of Nagara temples. The most common name for the simple Shikhara is ‘Latina’ or ‘Rekhprasada’ type of Shikhara.

  • I. Ajmer District
    List of Masjids in Rajasthan which was built by destroying Hindu temples LIST OF MOSQUES IN RAJASTHAN WHICH WERE BUILT AFTER DEMOLISHING THE HINDU TEMPLES We give below, state-wise and district-wise, the particulars of Muslim monuments which stand on the sites and/or have been built with the materials of Hindu temples, and which we wish to recall as witnesses to the role of Islam as a religion and the character of Muslim rule in medieval India. The list is the result of a preliminary survey. Many more Muslim monuments await examination. Local traditions which have so far been ignored or neglected have to be tapped on a large scale. We have tried our best to be exact in respect of locations, names and dates of the monuments mentioned. Even so, some mistakes and confusions may have remained. It is not unoften that different sources provide different dates and names for the same monument. Many Muslim saints are known by several names, which create confusion in identifying their mazars or dargahs. Some districts have been renamed or newly, created and a place which was earlier under one district may have been included in another. We shall be grateful to readers who point out these mistakes so that they can be corrected in our major study. This is only a brief summary. Sita Ram Goel It should be kept in mind that the list below doesn’t include all the temples destroyed by Muslims and converted to mosques. The below is the list of mosques and Darghas where evidences exists of having been made after destroying the temples at these locations.
