I have always loved history and was mesmerised by the palaces and forts which I saw in Delhi first. If you have ever visited the Taj Mahal, you too can connect with me. How did they make it? Isn’t it beautiful and extraordinary? Even the forts and palaces are too good. The intricate designs can hardly be overlooked. I can highly relate the baroque architecture with Taj Mahal since it also has a domelike ceiling. Do you know what is baroque style architecture? If not, get to know about it here.

Origin of baroque architectureThe Baroque style began in the 17th century in Rome and then spread in France, northern Italy, Spain, Portugal and even to Austria, southern Germany and Russia.It came to India during the colonial presence as soon as India got in contact with Europe.
Baroque architecture characteristicsBaroque styles is characterised by several features like having
Large domes or cupolas
Intricate, elaborate motifs and decorations
Double-sloped mansard roof
They are grandeur and rich from every angle
Baroque architecture used materials like brick and stone chifley. Limestone and slate were also seen to have been used mostly in the exterior parts of the buildings. For interior decoration, red and grey granite were also seen to be used. This depends on the places and availability of stones found.
Taking a glance only you will know that it would cost a huge amount of money to create this and such designs do suit palaces and monuments only and not buildings or houses for which it has become almost obsolete now.
I hope after knowing about
baroque style architecture, you yourself will be able to know which monuments or palaces are created following it.
