Abstract

The development of culture is a historical process. Our ancestors played an important role in building our culture and heritage. Our ancestors also added new ideas to the culture and this process of progress in cultural heritage is going on since ancient times. Thus culture is passed from one generation to the next. The idea of humanity and peace can also be considered as the cultural heritage that our ancestors have provided to us. There are many ancient heritage sites in India. Some of these heritages are Taj Mahal, Agra Qutub Minar, Red Fort, Delhi and Golden Temple, Punjab etc. The architecture of these heritage buildings is unique where the Taj Mahal is listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. This article throws light on Indian history and culture through these heritages.
