Scientists are baffled how India built this in 17th century!  

The Gol Gumbaz, the mausoleum of Sultan Mohammed Adil Shah, is an architectural marvel with a dome that measures about 44 meters in diameter. This makes it one of the largest domes ever built in the history of architecture. This monumental size isn't just an aesthetic choice; it also has remarkable acoustic properties. In the Whispering Gallery, which runs around the inside of the dome, even the softest sound can be clearly heard on the opposite side, nearly 44 meters away. This demonstrates an intricate understanding of acoustics, as the sound waves are perfectly focused due to the geometry of the structure. The sheer scale and engineering of the Gol Gumbaz, specifically its Whispering Gallery, exemplify the advanced level of architectural and acoustic knowledge that existed in 17th-century India. It's a monument that doesn't just captivate visitors with its grandeur but also leaves them pondering about the scientific acumen of the artisans and engineers of the period. #India #Vijayapura #karnataka #wonders #architecture
प्राचीन काल से भारत में वास्तु-विद्या के बेहतरीन उदहारण मौजूद हैं। 17वीं शताब्दी में निर्मित बीजापुर के गोल गुम्बज का पूरी दुनिया में आज भी कोई मुक़ाबला नहीं है। यह आज भी दुनिया का बिना खम्बों के समर्थन से बना सबसे बड़ा गुम्बद है। #OMGIndia
