Pushkar-See

Der Pushkar-See (Hindi पुष्कर झील Puṣkar Jhīl) ist ein kleiner künstlich angelegter See bei der Stadt Ajmer im Aravalligebirge im indischen Bundesstaat Rajasthan. Es ist eines der heiligsten Gewässer Indiens. Lage Der ca. 15 km (Fahrtstrecke) nordwestlich von Ajmer gelegene und von mehr als 600 m hohen Bergen umschlossene See liegt bei dem für Hindus heiligen Ort Pushkar in einer Höhe von 489 m ü. d. M. Geschichte und Legenden Alten Texten und Inschriften zufolge wird der Pushkar-See bereits im 4. Jahrhundert v. Chr. erwähnt. Der Hindu-Gott Brahma soll hier den Dämon Vajranabha mit seiner Lotosblumenwaffe getötet und dabei den See geschaffen haben. Im 9. Jahrhundert n. Chr. soll ein Rajputenfürst aus Mandore durch das Wasser des Sees von einer Pigmentstörung der Haut geheilt worden sein. Im 12. Jahrhundert wurde der alte Damm aus Stein neu gebaut, wodurch die Fläche des Sees sich etwas vergrößerte. Im 16. Jahrhundert kam der Mogul-Herrscher Jahangir mehrere Male zur Jagd in die Gegend von Ajmer; am Ufer des Pushkar-Sees ließ er sich einen kleinen Palast erbauen, dessen Ruinen heute noch zu sehen sind. Im ausgehenden 17. Jahrhundert ließ der Großmogul Aurangzeb mehrere Tempel im Ort zerstören. In der Zeit des Niedergangs des Mogulreiches stifteten mehrere Rajputenfürsten neue Tempel oder Uferbefestigungen (ghats). Der See gilt vielen Hindus heute immer noch als einer der heiligsten Orte Indiens; ein Bad in seinem Wasser ist genauso reinigend wie ein Bad im Ganges. Ein Teil der Asche Mahatma Gandhis wurde hier verstreut. Sonstiges Der sich nur während der Monsunzeit mit Wasser füllende Pushkar-See drohte gegen Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts zu versanden; er wurde jedoch trockengelegt und stellenweise ausgebaggert.

Lago de Púshkar

El lago de Púshkar está localizado en la ciudad homónima en el distrito de Ajmer en el estado de Rajastán, India. El lago de Púshkar es un lugar sagrado para los practicantes de la religión hindú, así como lugar de peregrinación. Está rodeado de 52 ghats, desde donde los devotos se sumergen en el agua en el mes de Kartik (oct./nov.) Los hindúes (practicantes de la religión hindú) creen que los dioses dejaron libre un cisne con una flor de loto en el pico. Allí donde el cisne dejara caer el loto, Brahma haría un gran yajña. El loto cayó en el lago de Pushkar. Galería El intento de las autoridades por ensanchar el lago y hacerlo más profundo fue infructuoso, resultando en la pérdida del agua del lago. En octubre de 2009 el lago se secó. Desde entonces se trabaja en su restauración. Enlaces externos Information About Pushkar Town. Archivado el 12 de agosto de 2019 en Wayback Machine.

Kishtwar National Park

Kishtwar National Park is a national park located 40 km from Kishtwar town in the Kishtwar district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. It is bounded to the north by Rinnay river, to the south by Kibar Nala catchment, to the east by the main divide of Great Himalaya, and to the west by Marwah river. Date and history of establishment It was declared a National Park on 4 February 1981 (Notification no. 21/FST of 1980-1981). Area 2,190.50 square kilometres (219,050 ha) Land Tenure state Altitude Ranges from 1,700 m to 4,800 m Physical features The National Park encompasses the catchments of Kiar, Nath and Kibar Nalas, all of which drain south-west into Marwah River (also known as Marusudar River) which joins the Chenab River just below the Kishtwar Town at Bhandarkoot village. The terrain is generally rugged and steep, with narrow valleys bounded by high ridges opening in their upper glacial parts. The area lies in the Central Crystalline belt of the Great Himalayas. Rocks are strongly folded in places and composed mainly of granite, gneiss and schist, with the occasional bed of marble. The shallow, slightly alkaline soils are mostly alluvial with gravel deposits. Climate The influence of the monsoon is weak. Mean annual rainfall at palmar and Sirshi (1,761 m), located near the periphery of the national park, is 827 mm and 741 mm, respectively, precipitation is maximal and in excess of 100 mm per month in March and April, and again in July and August. Most snow fall in December and January when the whole area becomes snowbound. Mean maximum and minimum temperatures recorded at Sirshi are 130 and -70 in January and 350c and 110c in July respectively. Vegetation Based on revised classification of Champion and Seth (1968), some 13 vegetation types are represented. In general, silver fir 'Abies pindrow' and spruce 'Picea wallichian', mixed with cedar Cedrus deodar and blue pine Pinus griffithii are predominant from 2,400m to 3,000m. Notable is the small expanse of chilgoza pine Pinus geradiana in the Dachan Range. At lower altitudes (1,700-2,400m) occur nearly pure stands of cedar and blue pine, and moist temperate deciduous forest, represented by horsechestnut, Aesculus indica, walnut Juglans regia, maple, Acer spp. poplar, Populus ciliata, hazel Corylus cornutam bird cherry Pasus corfnuta, ash Fraxinus cornuta and yew Taxus wallichiana. The sub-alpine zone, from 3,000m to the tree line at 3,700m, supports mostly silver fir and birch Betula utilis forest and this merges with birch -rhododendron Rhododendron campanulatum scrub, above which is alpine pasture. Among the animals that make their home here include the Himalayan snowcock and the brown bear. Cultural heritage Racial groups include Kashmiris, Thakurs, Gujars, Rajputs and Brahmans, Bhagats. Local human population There are permanent settlements but some 1,115 families of nomadic graziers, with 25,000 head of livestock, and an unspecified number of families from nearby villages, with 10,000 head, have grazing rights in the national park. Some agriculture is practised in peripheral areas. References

Rajon Ki Baoli

Der Rajon Ki Baoli ist ein Stufenbrunnen aus dem Jahr 1506 in der Nähe des Qutb-Komplex von Mehrauli, Delhi, Indien. Lage Der Rajon-Ki-Baoli-Stufenbrunnen liegt im Mehrauli Archaeological Park im Süden Delhis nahe dem Adham-Khan-Mausoleum. Ein weiterer Stufenbrunnen, der Gandhak Ki Baoli, ist nur etwa 300 m in südwestlicher Richtung entfernt. Die nächstgelegene Metro-Station ist Saket. Geschichte Der etwa gleichzeitig mit einer kleinen Moschee und einem Mausoleum erbaute Rajon Ki Baoli gilt als Auftragswerk des Lodi-Sultans Sikandar Lodi (reg. 1489–1517). Funktion Während der alljährlichen Monsunzeit im Sommer füllt sich der gesamte Bau mit Regenwasser, das nach dem Ende der Regenfälle wieder verdunstet bzw. durch die Fugen zwischen den Steinen im umliegenden Erdreich versickert. Wegen der Treppenbauweise konnte jedoch ehedem ohne Zuhilfenahme von Seilwinden oder Zugtieren (Ochsen oder Kamele) einen Großteil des Jahres auf vergleichsweise bequeme Art Wasser geschöpft werden – eine Aufgabe, die in früheren Zeiten regelmäßig den Frauen oblag. Architektur Die tiefste Stelle des von der Nordseite aus über eine lange Treppe zugänglichen und etwa 60 m langen, 20 m breiten und etwa 18 m tiefen Bauwerks lag ursprünglich permanent unterhalb des Grundwasserspiegels, der jedoch in den letzten Jahrzehnten stetig weiter abgesunken ist, so dass der Brunnen vor allem in den Frühjahrsmonaten regelmäßig trockenfällt. Nur der obere, von Arkaden gesäumte Teil wurde während des Monsuns nicht überschwemmt; er diente den Frauen als Rast- und Gesprächsplatz. Hinter der rückwärtigen Wand befindet sich ein runder Brunnenschacht, über den in Trockenzeiten das Grundwasser noch einige Tage länger mittels Seilwinden und Eimern erreichbar war.

Rajon Ki Baoli

Rajon ki Baoli also referred as Rajon ki Bain is a famous stepwell in Mehrauli Archaeological Park of Delhi, India. It was commissioned by Daulat Khan Lodi in 1506 CE, an administrator of the Lodi dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate. The enclosure of Rajon Ki Baoli includes a mosque and a tomb. The name Rajon Ki Baoli is derived from the 'Rajbirs' or 'Mistris' - the term used for masons. It got its name in early 20th century because of the masons that moved in permanently into the area. From the North, the steps lead down to the water filled in the stepwell and, from the east and west sides the stepwell is enclosed by high walls. The walls have a narrow side to walk on and twelve pillars both sides that encased arched niches. Architecture The monument gives its first impression of the medieval period. A courtyard surrounded by a verandah with many beautiful pillars, and the arches in the verandah are made in the typical north Indian fashion of that time. There is a stepwell at the center of the structure the steps leading to the stepwell are made in such a way that it gets cooler as it reaches down near the stepwell.
