what a great find. Spectacular architecture. Hopefully I will get to visit some of these places someday.
The picture on my post was a painting by Robert Genn, who is Canadian, I think...thanks for reminding me, as I forgot to put the reference!
What a gorgeous post...lovely photos and architecture. I need to catch up on more of your posts!!
Thanks for stopping by! Terri xo
Hello Erinn! It would be awesome to have you visit India! :)
Ah...so it's a painting! :-) Thanks Terri!
And welcome to An Indian Summer!
Yesterday I ate in a more than delicious French restaurant in Montreal called La Porte (The Door). The name of the restaurant is in reference to a fabulous old door they purchased in Morocco. It has the same presence that the beautiful views you offered us. The architecture is splendid.
Hi Bhavna,
Love your blog!!
All the unusual colors are so interesting and refreshing!!!!
We are friends through Terri:)
Holly
Thanks Kim!
Hello Holly! Glad you dropped by
:-)...visit me again!
Bhavna, what a treat it is to visit your blog! The turquoise door in Ahmedabad is particularly stunning!
Thanks Amber! :-)
The blue door calls me to enter. The pointy mountain rocks. So unusual and sacred. Farah Mahbub is a talented photographer!
She sure is, Constance...i was spell bound by the depth of some of her architectural photographs..
Do check out the mountain images on her site...she has a couple more there..
These are amazing! The architecture is phenomenal. What a talented photographer!
Hey Bhavna dahling...love the one with the blue door.
Turkey is on my must see list. Istanbul could be on my horizon for next year. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
Delicious post, as usual.
Yum!

Melissa, India abounds in absolutely fabulous heritage architecture :-)..and Farah has been able to capture snippets of it beautifully!
All fingers and toes crossed for you Gillian! That is going to be one dreamy trip.. :-)
Hello bhavna,
those are beautiful photos. I visited the Red Fort in Delhi about thirty years ago and admired its splendid architecture. I have very good memories of India.

Hi Olivia! 30 years...India has changed so much since then ... but yes, the heritage architecture is still intact!
Thank you so much for visiting me...do drop by again! :)
