Vishwakarma, the celestial artisan, stands as the divine patron of artisans and architects, his creative prowess transcending mortal limits. Vishwakarma Puja, a cherished observance among Hindus, pays homage to the divine patron of architecture and engineering. In the current age of Kali Yuga, Vishwakarma’s divine craftsmanship graced the earth once more, giving rise to the storied city of Hastinapur. Lord Krishna, the master orchestrator of fates, extended an invitation to Vishwakarma, the divine architect, to craft a capital befitting the Pandavas on this sacred soil. Pools and ponds, nestled amid the palace’s re-splendent chambers, wove an illusion of ethereal enchantment, their crystalline depths appearing as seamless, tranquil expanses, defying the presence of water beneath.
