Sandstones have been revered for ages, ever since they were utilised to adorn a wide range of architectural landmarks. These ancient Indian structures still stand proudly today, many of which have been designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Some of the models for natural sandstone building include the Buland Darwaza in Fatehpur Sikri and the Red Fort, Chittorgarh Fort, Sanchi Stupa, and Qutub Minar.

The simplest and most obvious justification for using this stone is that it looks nice. That earthy hue and those breathtaking grooves have a certain allure. Sandstone resembles hard sand in texture, and its coarse surface is reminiscent of outback rock formations. Sandstone has frequently been utilised in bathrooms and living rooms for this.
