Cooling techniques from Mughal architecture before the invention of AC

The Mughal Empire adeptly used architecture to stay cool without modern air conditioning. They employed flora, water, jharokhas, courtyards, thick walls, high ceilings, chhatris, domes, jaali screens, and strategic building orientation to regulate temperature and improve ventilation. These techniques could inspire contemporary sustainable building practices. Via Times of India https://ift.tt/TGn5Duw
