Postcards from Rishikesh

The typography on the walls of temples, asharams and trusts is very interesting. And the place is infested with asharams and trusts, and of course, tourists and believers during the in-season!

Bold white lettering, in many different scripts, on red walls, parapets


An asharam enterance on a cold winter morning


The world is a painting. Windows hung on painted walls.


Niketan means house. What is Parmarth? Param + Arth? = Supreme + Meaning?



The mountains, the glass windows, the rocks by the river bed, and the nuts and bolts.


Ved Asharam: A dash of red, in the quiet and cold of December
