Discover serenity at Jagdish Mandir, an architectural gem nestled in the vibrant city of Udaipur.
Surya Narayan temple at Nirath, near Rampur Bushayr in Himachal Pradesh.
The temple at Nirath has been dated to the 11th-12th century CE , and it is associated with stories from the Mahabharata and the Pandavas, while locals claim that it was built during Dwapara Yuga.
Architecture wise it is nagara saili, & very distinctly bears the eastern Indian temple style with clear Pala-Sena handwork.
Evidently renovated or built over the remains of an older temple (of the Pala dynasty, as evident from the typical Pala art style sculptures kept inside the mandapa), the current shikhara show workmanship of a later period (16th-17th centuries; hence likely handwork of the Sena dynasty). The Shikhara has the face of Surya carved on all four sides.
A number of old stone Shivlingas found while building the dam and nearby roads are kept in the courtyard of the temple.
The sanctum contains a black stone murti of Surya riding a chariot pulled by seven horses and carrying two lotuses in his hands.

The Tomb of Muhammad Ghauss
Amidst the innovatively named locality of Tansen Nagar in Gwalior lies the tomb of a Sufi saint who was revered by the newly arrived Padshah of Hindustan, Babur.
Mohammed Ghaus Gwaliori was a Sufi saint of the Shattari Silsilah in the 16th century.
Shattari was a newly founded Sufi silsilah that had its roots in Persia. Abdullah Shattar, the founder, reached India during the reign of the Lodhis in Delhi.
He was probably unable to adjust to the 'ruhaniyat' of the Sufi khanqas in Delhi, so he soon moved to Jaunpur and eventually settled in Mandu.
Some 50 years later, his successor, Muhammad Ghaus Shattari, found an opportunity to enhance his prestige and he helped a zealous Persianised Turk who wanted to establish his empire in India.
