Victoria Memorial

Image
 Victoria Memorial Victoria Memorial is one of the famous and beautiful monuments of Kolkata. It was built between 1906 and 1921 to commemorate Queen Victoria's 25-year reign in India. After the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857, the British government gathered the reins of control of the country directly, and in 1876 the British parliament made Victoria the Empress of India. Her reign ended with her death in 1901. The Victoria Memorial is possibly the most awesome reminder of the Raj to be found in India. This huge white-marble museum, made from Makrana marbles from Rajasthan, is filled with a vast collection of remnants from the period of British Empire rule in India. The forms in the museum like the great dome, clustered with four subsidiary, octagonal domed chattris, the high portals, the terrace and the domed corner towers speak of a splendid richness in architecture. The Memorial is situated on 64 acres of land with the building covering 338 ft by 228 ft.

Somewhere that not only blew my mind but instantly makes me want to go back and visit all over again. One of those places was 108 Mandala Top Arunachal Pradesh! Mandala is elevated at just under 10,000 feet above sea level, so you’ll quickly feel the altitude and the cold when you ascend! Mandala is located around 30 kilometres from Dirang along winding bumpy roads! From the Dirang Basti welcome gate or Dirang Power Station, take a left towards Mandala Top on the Tatung Dzong – Bhutan Road. The whole route will be signposted towards Mandala and, like most of the region, there will be stone markers letting you know how many kilometres you have left. Perched at around 10,000 feet above sea level in the Himalayas, Mandala Top or 108 Mani is a relatively new attraction in the area that locals and tourists are raving about. As a spiritual pilgrimage for many, the feeling you get when...
