4. Qutub minar
The Qutub Minar straight rests for a 1.7 m square this is certainly deep
masonry system with edges of around 16.5 m, which in turn overlies a 7.6 m
deep lime mortar rubble masonry layer, additionally square, with sides of
approximately 18.6 m
The bedrock is located around 50–65 m below the walk out.
The Minar cross-section is circular/polilobed, being the bottom diameter
equal to 14.07 m and tapering off to a diameter of 3.13 m towards the top,
more than a height of 72.45 m.
The tower is composed by an outside layer corresponding to a three leaf
masonry wall and a cylindrical core this is certainly main.
5. Jantar mantar
Jantar mantar also know as the equinoctial sundial.Because it
consists gigantic triangular gnomon which having the hypotenuse parallel to
the Earth‘s axis.
There is a quadrant of a circle, parallel to the plane of the equator on the
either side of the gnomon. So this is used to measure the time of the day.
In india there are 5 jantar mantar and from those largest one is Jaipur
Jantar mantar.
6. Iron pillar
The dimensions of the 1600-year-old Delhi Iron Pillar have been re-analysed in
light of new scholarship on the traditional Indian unit of measurement.
The dimensions of the pillar can be well reconciled considering the basic unit of
measurement as 17.63 mm.
The low percentage errors between the theoretical and actual measurements
provide further support to this analysis.
The significant mathematical ratios embedded in the relative dimensions of the
pillar have also been set forth.
The close association of the basic unit of measurement and the mathematical
ratios with those of the Harappan civilization offers evidence for continuity of
scientific ideas and traditions from the Harappan civilization to the Ganga
civilization.
Analysis of dimensions of the characters of the Gupta-Brahmi inscription
revealed the possible use of the decimal system
8. Pemayangtse Monastery
The Pemayangtse Monastery is a Buddhist monastery in Pemayangtse, near
Pelling in the northeastern Indian state of Sikkim, located 110 km west of
Gangtok.
Planned, designed and founded by Lama Lhatsun Chempo in 1647, it is one of
the oldest and premier monasteries of Sikkim, also the most famous in
Sikkim.
9. Statue of Buddha
A steel plate placed on top of the double thunderbolt design under the base
is inscribed with the following: “J. Johnson, Quarter Master, 99th Regiment,
China Campaign, 1860.
” Quarter Master Johnson was part of the Allied troops that occupied
Beijing and destroyed the summer palace (Yuanming Yuan).
There is no doubt this piece was taken at that time.
The tallest Buddha statue in the World is in Pattaya, Thailand with 130
meters height.
10. Lachen monastry
