Latitude passes close to saanchi and bhopal n India?

Answer 1

-- The latitude at the center of the largest dome on the hill of monuments at Sanchi,

Madhya Pradesh, is 23.4794° North.

-- The latitude at the center of the Moti Masjid, near the shore of the Upper Lake

in Bhopal, is 23.2556° North.

-- The 'mid-latitude' between them is about 23.3675° North. That latitude has no

particular significance, and is not likely to be marked on maps of ordinary scale.

Perhaps you've seen a map with a parallel of latitude printed on it at 25° N ...

roughly 181 km north of both cities.

The difference in the latitudes of these particular points in the two cities is

about 0.22° , corresponding to a north/south distance of about 24.9 km (15.45 mi).

But the east/west distance is about 34.9 km (21.66 mi), and the straight "airline"

distance between them is 42.7 km (26.6 mi).
