Explanation

Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) in Jaipur was built in 1799 with 953 intricately designed jharokhas (windows) to allow royal women to observe street life and festivals while remaining unseen from the outside, following the strict purdah system of Rajasthan. The five-story facade is designed like a honeycomb to enable proper ventilation. Rashtrapati Bhawan is the President's residence in Delhi, Se Cathedral is a church in Goa, and Bada Imambara is in Lucknow.
