Designed by British architects Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker, the Parliament House (Sansad Bhavan) stands as a striking sandstone structure in New Delhi. This circular building draws inspiration from the Great Stupa of Sanchi and the Ashoka Chakra, the same circular symbol at the center of the Indian flag. The imposing edifice houses both houses of the Parliament of India. Visitors can admire the intricate stonework and the harmonious blend of architectural influences, offering a glimpse into the rich historical and cultural heritage of the nation.
