Indraprastha : Magical City of Pandavas


Indraprastha

Magical City of Pandavas

Description:

Indraprastha was the city owned by Pandavas, as described in the Mahabharata. It was originally known as Khandavaprastha, but then Pandavas developed a magical city with the help of Indra, and named it Indraparstha. It had a magical palace, known as Maya Palace. I've illustrated that palace here, which has eternal light coming from the sky. The modern day Indraprastha is known as Delhi, the capital city of India. Since the Mahabharata occurred more than 5000 years ago, we don't have any ruins of Indraprastha or its palace. 

This is just an imaginary art of how the magical city of Pandavas might be looked like. The city was protected by the head god of Kuru Clan, Lord Shiva, and that's why I put the idol of Lord Shiva at the top of city, who protects Indraprastha. 

Hope you would like it.
