I see at least three important elements of Indian architecture on this facade. One is Chhatri (or chatri - dome-shaped pavilion ) here engaged (or half buried) to form the second important element called Jharokha (or overhanging balconies) and the third element called Jali (or perforated stone or latticed screen) on balconies.
From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawa_Mahal
"Hawa Mahal ( translation: Palace of Winds), is a palace in Jaipur, India. It was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh, and designed by Lal Chand Usta in the form of the crown of Krishna, the Hindu god. It forms part of the City Palace and extends the Zenana or women's chambers, the chambers of the harem. Its original intention was to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life in the street below without being seen."
Compare this building with Havali (or private residence) see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haveli

Hola raymacuba. Si puedes ir al Taj, no lo dudes. Si puede ser, pasate al atardecer. Espero que no te agobie estar rodeado de mucha gente ;-)

Very nice pictures! We have been to some of the same places and have similar styles. I remember sitting by this tree in Cambodia talking to our guide!
Would love to see more of your pics!

The picture was taken with a Sigma 10-20. A very good lens. I do not know the exposure time right now but I think it was about 30 secundo. I will check and post the correct info when I have it.
Thanks for your comments!
