Modhera Sun Temple


Master piece of Architecture
Modhera Sun Temple
Sun Temple of Modhera is a beautiful intricately carved temple constructed by King Bhimadev I in 1026. A perfect example of Solanki Architecture, Sun temple of Modhera lies exactly on the Tropic of Cancer and has been constructed in such a way that the first rays of the Sun on the two equinoxes of the year fell exactly on the crown on the head of the deity’s idol in the Garbha Griha. The Crown was stolen and the temple was destroyed considerably during the invasion of Alauddin Khilji in the 12th Century. The temple has 3 Parts: Surya Kund, Sabha Mandapa and the Maha Mandapa. The walls of the temple has beautiful statues of various Hindu Gods and Goddesses primarily Sun God as he is the presiding deity there. There are 52 pillars in the sabha mandapa symbolizing 52 weeks of the year each having stories of Ramayana and Mahabharata carved out on it. The temple revives the comparison with that of Konark Sun Temple of Odisha in terms of architectural styles and influence. The place where the temple has come up found its reference in scriptures of Brahma Purana and Skanda Purana. A perfect day excursion from Ahmedabad, the Sun Temple of Modhera has been attracting tourists with the majestic Rani Ki Vav as a complement.

BARAMOTECHI VIHIR

Enjoy Baramotechi Vihir with SURABHI TRAVELS Pune.


Baramotichi Vihir is a step well in Limb, Satara village. It was constructed between 1641 and 1646 by Sau. Virubai Bhosale. It was meant to be a water source to all the farms around with its 12 moats. From the top, visitors can see few tiny walls and water channels. The well is octagonal in shape and looks like dug-out Shivling is 110 feet deep and 50 feet in diameter. A step-well is just a well with steps all along the sides which lead you to the bottom of the well. Of course, the design of the steps range from “just steps” to “intricately carved designs”. This one had steps from one side leading to the middle of the well from where there were look-out galleries. This is not a traditional step-well like the ones in Rajasthan.
