Here, the grand monument Radhasoami memorial is 110 feet high, and is made of pure white marble. The building is under construction for the last 100 years. The architecture is an exquisite mix of temple, gurudwara, vihara and mosque.
The above is the entrance to the memorial.The stone carvings on colored marble are magnificent. On the inner walls the semi-precious stones in pietra-dura style has been inlaid.

A wonderful Indian architectural monument with mind blowing stone carvings.
I have visited this monument twice and is a beautiful epic of different Indian religions.
This monument is very impressive, but it is still hard to grasp the idea that it has been under construction for 100 years. The stone work is amazing.

My goodness that's an amazing marble structure. The delicate carving is amazing too.
Beautiful architecture , beautiful picture, interesting history (as always). Under construction for a century? Wow! (I couldn't spot any signs of ongoing work. They must do a good job of hiding it).
impressive entrance; I mean the whole building is, but love that entryway.
