i have chosen akshardham temple which is in new delhi, much of modern time,

constructed in 2005, it is like a hidden gem in Delhi's crown, the sighting of this
monument is also around river yamuna, it is said that yogi maharaj had a dream of
builidng the temple on the banks of yamuna, so it was built and is 1700m away from
river yamuna bank. the temple is seen as a stand alone monumental piece surounded
by the waterbody and all those landscaped gardens, also one can see there are CWG
flats seen behind also all the surroundings are of lower hieghts which creates
emphasis for this temple , it is a different architectural experience amidst the
hustle bustle of city, which can be experienced when one can go inside by
themselves, not only tradtitonal architecture but also incorporating modern
technologies of various exhibitions, in the evening when it is lit from all sides,
it is seen as a jewel sitting in the middle.
