Thanks, Faizan, would definitely add Vani Vilasa to the list as and when I update the list. This is the joy of blogging, when heritage lovers from around the country add to the knowledge base.

It’d be great if you could add Mysore palace as it was also built by queen Vani Vilasa. The KRS dam, which was the second biggest one during that era was also funded by her personal gold. There are many such interesting stories we would like to share with you the next time you drop in here to Mysore!

Sarvana ji, Look at all the comments, how many monuments were built by women. We were just not mentioned by the history writers otherwise we were an equal part of history always.

I was also surprised to know about the Virupaksha temple. This shows the prowess of woman even in those days when men were considered to be supreme. Really liked the information here and thanks for the effort.

I thought of WHS, but that would limit the space to only 32 odd monuments or may be 100 odd if we include the tentative list also. I want places like Mahim Causeway – which was a huge public project and played a key role in evolution of the city itself to be a part of this list than just the personal worship spaces built for / by women basically for their comfort or privacy needs.
