All this week I’m going to be sharing photos of Indian heritage sites on this blog. I ended up with hundreds of these after my December trip and I’m sure they’ll be useful to other people besides me who teach heritage studies, architectural history, the history of India and/or the British Empire, and so on. Today I’m starting with three sets from Mughal-period sites in Delhi:
- The Red Fort
- Humayun’s Tomb
- A giant astronomical observatory: Jantar Mantar
- Qutb Minar complex, Delhi (the oldest mosque in India)
- The Mughal palace complex at Fatehpur Sikri
- The Taj Mahal
- Agra Fort
- Serampore College
- British-period Kolkata and Darjeeling (coming soon).
