Jagarnatha (Lord of the Universe) temple in Delhi. With special guide-Reela.
The magnificent temple of Lord Jagannath located in the heart of capital city of New Delhi. The temple was constructed by the Paramparik Vastukar from the holy city of Lord Jagannath, Puri. This being the oldest Jagannath Temple in the NCR, attracts devotees from every corner of the city and outside. The holy place not only will take you to the heights of spiritual alignment but will give you an opportunity to bless yourself with Anna-Bhog Prasad. Without tasting the Mouth-Watering SWEETS of Odisha, you will feel incomplete, once you will visit here.
Jantar Mantar Architectural Astronomical wonder
The name is derived from jantar (“instrument”), and mantar (“formula”, or in this context “calculation”). Therefore jantar mantar means literally ‘calculation instrument’. This observatory has religious significance, since ancient Indian astronomers were also Jyotisa masters.
Jantar Mantar (Yantra – instruments, mantra – formulae) was constructed in 1724 by Maharaja Jai Singh of Jaipur The Jantar Mantar is located in the modern city of New Delhi. It consists of 13 architectural astronomy instruments.
Kumhaargram potter’s village
Special opportunity to visit! From a recent visitor:
I had to choose between Taj Mahal and the Pottery Tour. I ended up with the Pottery Tour because of time constraints. And I was not the least disappointed. I can recommend this to anybody who is interested to see more than the usual guide-book stuff about India. Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty and sturdy shoes. You can make pottery yourself and will learn about the village life. Expect children who are as curious about you as you are about them. You will have a chance to buy pottery made in the village, but you don’t have to if you don’t feel like it.
