Ganesh Pole in the Fortress-Palace of Amber whose construction was started in 1592 CE, after Raja Mansingh - as a commander of the Akbarian army - sacked Kabul.
The replica of this majestic "Ganesh Pol" gateway
which graces the Diwan-e-aam chowk of Amber ,as
constructed in the Birla auditorium at Sawai Jai
Singh statue circle in Jaipur, in our times, as a
mirror image of the original above is a very laudable
effort by the Birlas indeed.
