Indian architecture is that vast tapestry of production of India that encompasses a multitude of expressions over space and time, transformed by the forces of history considered unique to the Indian subcontinent, sometimes destroying, but most of the time absorbing. The result is an evolving range of architectural production that none the less retains a certain amount of continuity across history.
Indian architecture is as diverse as its culture. The architecture of India offers a unique blend of Vedic/Hindu, Islamic, Jain, Buddhist and British architectural designs. Until the arrival of Islam, Vedic art and architecture was dominant in India. The rise of the Mughal Empire in the 16th century established Mughal architecture in northern Indian subcontinent. The colonization of India in the 19th century paved the way for the development of Anglo-Indian architecture while Portuguese and French architectural designs prevailed in their former colonies in India
