Its another bakbak for those only who are eager to handle and manage it.

Heritage/ Culture / Architecture

Ususally tortures what is where, who made it, etc and all. 
So,
Prepare a pattern, and a chart for easy revision with following essential coloumns

  1. Name of monument ( Temple, mosque, church, fort, palace, road, public places , etc )
  2. Place ( old name ; new name with district and state, if eccentric (eventually successful) plot on map)
  3. Era ( include: Time: Reign: Dynasty: King/(made by), start by, finish by, repaired by.
  4. Purpose: ( e.g. worship, security, entertainment, etc)
  5. Dedication: temple- for which deity, tomb - whose, etc
  6. evolution - purpose of some sites had changed during ages, with the change of diiferent regimes.
  7. MOST IMP - mark place if it has been in news recently. ( safely within 3 years of your exam)
This chart will be helpful in revising, as well as learnig.
All the best,

tip: go to page and look for shares from some pages, they will be helpful.
More bakbak for listeners to come........
