National Art Gallery, Chennai

Could not go in when I went there around mid 2007. They all look almost the same, dont they? I am not an expert on this subject, but so many motifs seem similar to those found in the Red Fort - the parapet, the arches, the posts at the corners.

Postcards from Chandigadh



A mural at Sector 17, Chandigadh. As a child, I remember, Sector 17 used to be one of the hep places to visit. "You can get anything here - from a needle to a car" our relatives used to tell us. A visit this time without the family, but just a few relatives, and without the enthusiasm of looking forward to a Fanta, was a bit dull. Yes, years ago the book shops too used to be a big draw.

Dussehra Preperations at Sankat Mochan, Shimla

Sankat Mochan is another name for Hanuman. This temple situated on a horse shoe affords a great view of Shimla from a distance. Dussehra preperations were in full swing when we visited the place. Some of us actually pull the Ravana up!

Jhakhdi to Sangla: A Treacherous Terrain

The terrain from Jhakhdi to Sangla Valley is one of the most trecherous I have seen. Till now I had thought my visits to some of the lower districts of Himachal were scary, but after the trip to Sangla valley, the lower terrain suddenly turned into an expressway!

Shimla: View from Metropole

These are a couple of the most amazing views of Shimla. If you are coming from chhota Shimla, you get down at Metropole, and start your ascent towards the Mall Road. Metropole is an old hotel, currently converted into a guest houst for government officials, if I remember correctly.

Center for Advanced Studies, Shimla

A few kilometers from Shimla, Center for Advanced Studies is a good picnic spot. Entry into the actual building is some INR 20 or so. We never went in for we reached there at lunch time (it is closed around that time), and later we did not have the drive to go in. The skin was beautiful enough.

Looks eerie?!!?

A collage of photos.

How would it look if the corridors were lined with hanging lines and clothes and flowerpots and painted patches and bits of posters? I think it would look nice. And a lot more livable.
