What better way to end the Bali blog post series than to reminisce about the day we spent on a boat? OK, yacht! Clear blue sky above us, the salty breeze in our face, & the azure Indian Ocean beneath us... Sigh!

An integral part of culture is food. When in Ladakh, eat ladakhi/ Tibetan.

In front of Tso Moriri, Kyagar Tso is often overlooked. Given that it's on the way, why not halt here too, to watch the changing lake colours and the salt deposits on the Lakeshore?

Remarkable Rajpath Series Part 16 On 10 february 1921, the Duke Of Connaught laid the foundation stone of the India Gate. The foundation stone ceremony was attended by Officers and Men of the British Indian Army, & the Commander-in-chief, among others... From then till today, the Gate has become a symbol for @incredibleindia ! #remarkable #rajpath #series #part16 #on10feb #1921 #thedukeofconnaught #laidthefoundation #stoneofthe #indiagate #thefoundationstone #ceremony #wasattended #byofficers #andmen #ofthebritish #indianarmyand #thecommanderinchief #amongothers #fromthentilltoday #thegate #hasbecome #asymbolfor #india #photography #photographer #indiagatedelhi #incredibleindia #travelphotography #indianphotography

Remarkable Rajpath Series Part 14 My symmetry obsession is satisfied, seeing the neatly stacked rows of plants, with not a single one out of place. 🙂 India Gate is a popular spot for civil society protests... The last time I walked around the Gate, Anna Hazare had initiated the anti-corruption movement! #remarkable #rajpath #series #part14 #mysymmetryobsession #issatisfied #seeingthe #neatlystacked #rowsofplants #withnot #asingleone #outofplace #🙂 #indiagate #isapopular #spotfor #civilsociety #protests #thelasttimeiwalked #aroundthegate #annahazare #had #initiated #the #anticorruptionmovement #photographer #indiagatedelhi #incredibleindia #travelphotography #indianphotography

Remarkable Rajpath Series Part 13 I've to give it to the Delhi horticulture department.

Remarkable Rajpath Series Part 12 When you step out, you see interesting things. An animal rescue van pulled over on the Rajpath, spread newspapers & laid out the food... Immediately, the stray dogs came running! & so did a crow, who patiently awaited its turn, once the big folks were done. #remarkable #rajpath #series #part12 #whenyoustepout #youseeinterestingthings #ananimal #rescuevan #pulledoveron #therajpath #spread #newspapers #andlaidout #thefood #immediately #thestraydogs #camerunning #andsodid #acrow #whopatiently #awaited #itsturn #oncethe #bigfolks #weredone #newdelhi #photography #incredibleindia #travelphotography #indianphotography

Remarkable Rajpath Series Part 10 The Rajpath is lined on both sides by huge lawns, & rows of trees. I remember a time when these lawns used to be abuzz with activity... You could find every kind of street hawker selling her/ his wares here! It's been curtailed now. Areas have been designated where hawkers can pitch their goods... #remarkable #rajpath #series #part10 #therajpath #islined #onbothsides #byhuge #lawnsand #rowsoftrees #irememberatimewhen #these #lawns #usedtobeabuzz #withactivity #youcouldfind #everykindof #streethawker #sellingher #hiswares #here #ithasbeen #curtailed #areas #havebeen #designated #where #hawkers #canpitch #theirgoods
