    Gol Gumbaz is the most famous monument in Vijayapura. It is the tomb of Mohammed Adil Shah (ruled 1627-1657). It is the second largest dome ever built, next in size only to St Peter's Basilica in Rome. A particular attraction in this monument is the central chamber, where every sound is echoed seven times.

    #1 wasn't really a famous landmark. It's only really known in that city. Even most Indians would not have heard of it.

    @ReldrikGeo English and Hindi are the official languages for governmental offices and parliament federally,
    u have to communicate with legislatives and politicians , supreme court judges, army,addressing the citizens (federally)through broadcast,etc with either English or Hindi.
    But it's different for states though,
    For states as u know every state has its own official languages(among several other non official languages in particular state in itself)
    Like for an example Tamil Nadu has Tamil and English as the option to communicate and broadcasting avenue administrated by the Tamil Nadu govt.
    Every bank ,public space infrastructure have to have English or Tamil to communicate with the citizens or citizens or citizens from outside the state.
    In total there r 22 official languages recognised by the govt of India(doesn't have to be on governmental offices/premises or public spaces,banners,etc) including English and Hindi as u know
    by now.

    At the last fort in Pune, the language you see is actually Marathi not Hindi, although its not easy to tell them apart since they both use nearly identical script. And yes that fort is smack-dab in the middle of the city with traffic all around it.
    Also idk if youve been told before but colour of the Auto-rickshaws can help you decipher the cities

      Yeah, Marathi has the infinity symble with the line on the right side. I just find it hard to find and point out since I cant read any of the indian languages lol
      Also yeah at one point I knew the rickshaws had different colors based on city but I always got it wrong when I went with that

    I live in Pune, so I could have helped you live on those Maharashtra ones ;). One other quick clue is that yellow+black taxis and rickshas are usually Maharashtra (Delhi and most other places they are green+yellow). Since you almost always see a ricksha on an Indian street, this is usually a quick help.

    Here are the major scripts that cover most of the languages you'll see signs in:
    1. Devnagri (Dev-naag-ree) script is used by the following major languages:
    Hindi language - most of north India
    Marathi language - state of Maharashtra
    Konkani language - Maharashtra / Karnataka border
    Nepali language - country of Nepal
    Most of the other scripts are primarily used by one dominant language - .e.g.
    Kannada (Kanarese) script - Kannada language (Karnataka state)
    Tamil script - Tamil language (Tamil Nadu state)
    Malayalam script - Malayalam language (Kerala state)
    Telugu script - Telugu language (Andhra Pradesh + Telengana states)
    Gujarati script - Gujarati and Kutcchi languages (Gujarat state)
    Bengali script - Bengali language (state of West Bengal)
    Odiya script - Odiya language (Odisha state)
    etc.

      I understand each area has its own language. I think I was just trying to wrap my head around the concept of so many languages so I mispoke when I said national language. Hindi is classified as the official language of the government but not the country?
      Here in the US the official language is English but I would argue that Spanish is very prominent in many places and much like in India with some languages being the main one you see on signs we have Spanish on signs in places like Puerto Rico.
      But even with that its a hard concept to understand just how diverse a country can be, thats why I love doing these geoguessing games with India. I really like learning and seeing the country

    One tip if you see historical sites that are indo-islamic (they have this unique dome thing at the top) then it is most likely going to be up north because, islamic invaders (notably the mughal empire) didn't reach the south states as they were stopped by the maratha empire, which is why you find many authentic historical temples in south india, they were not destroyed by invasions, while the temples in the north were destroyed

      You got mixed up very badly. The Islamic invasions of India started in the 11th century, while the Maratha Empire came into being in the late 17th century. For about 600 years, many other kingdoms in India were fighting the invasions, and not the Marathas.

    I don't know why it's hard for westerners to understand why we leave our footwear outside home, temple and other indoor places, it has nothing to do with religion but everything to do with hygiene.

    • @ReldrikGeo
      @ReldrikGeo  5 месяцев назад

      If I left my shoes outside bugs would climb in. I take my shoes off after I step inside the door of my house.
      That said I don't know what the comment is in context too because I don't remember this video well

      ​@@ReldrikGeo In the video you saw bunch of footwears outside temple and assumed it's for religious reason like many westerners do. That's why I said it's not for religious reason.
      yes bugs getting into shoes are problem, that's why I always check the shoes before I wear.
