Experiencing the richness of architecture through senses are the hallmarks of timeless architecture. The interactive process of encoding and decoding forms and spaces in architecture leads to experience. This paper focuses on understanding how the architectural marvel still evokes emotive responses in the perceiver. Exhaustive studies of a large number of architectural marvels obviously have an element of subjectivity with respect to the purpose of study for which the study is conducted. In this paper, our perception of holistic experience on few of the case studies is discussed at length.
