Brown Walls and the Sounds of Flute !

My restless of not being able to drive for a long time, took me to Fatehpur Sikri last weekend, and one our way back we decided to see the Ghats in Vrindavan... I am so glad we did !!! Got to see a completely different view of the town of Krishna !

While I feel lazy about writing in complete detail about the trip, please enjoy some of the pictures below...

A vehicle typical to western UP.. Called "Jugad" and made out of a Diesel Genset/Water Pump fitted with used automobile parts (Steering, Suspension, Radiator, Headlights) and a wooden body over a hard suspension chassis ! (Photograph by Tushar aka Burf)

Camera overuse and exploitation ! :P


A boat in Yamuna waters !


One of many kids at Mazaar of Khwaja Saleem Chishti...

ASI works hard to keep the Sikri clean and green ! and it shows !!!


A wall in the Jodhabai's Mahal ( Its refered to as her Palace, but there are no historical evidences to really prove the Jodhabhai used to stay here)... The pictures below are from the same palace...


I am going to away for a couple of days... maybe more !!! Will see you all soon at the Chai ki Dukaan !!!
