इले-इ-तामीर  (ARCHITECTURE)

      

                       

The chawri bazaar has beautiful architecture. houses and shops are both made in a systematical manner according to me. shops are simple with banners and without motifs whereas houses have beautiful balconies and windows with motifs.    

 Balconies were the main point of attraction for me. I was able to see the market in one point perspective view while standing near the exit gate of metro station. Shops are on the ground level and houses on the first floor balconies and windows were so attractive that I used to stop in midway to have a look at it. It has beautiful motifs whether on the grills or carvings. The 19th century architecture was very fascinating.The 'piao' was a really interesting thing. There was a small wooden window with motifs.The window was to serve water. it fulfills the design need as people can't enter the room but could get water easily.Few houses looked gloomy and mysterious.It seemed as each house held a mystery and history. 

The small windows to look out for ladies shows the conservative nature of people and the architecture fulfills the design need.      Shops and houses are on the both sides of the road.there is a footpath on each side. I was able to see the hard work of the laborers. Its an piece of art.
