ENTER: ADALAJ NI VAV/ STEPWELL OF ADALAJ
leading to the well...
divinity not left alone...
bearing parables
The Darbar
design display
architectural inspiration
the overlooking floors
Facing the well...
Ahmedabad Jama Masjid
and...its magnificent dome...colour sprinkled
artistic excellence...
myriad pillars rhyming the glories of time fargone...
the speaking tree
pillars of strength....
the sprawling Sarkhej Roza
the tattered soul...
the parched up reservoir...(now)
then... a year back...
baradari: a shade
the designer ventilator
cluster of hope behind Sarkhej Roza
Welcomes Lothal
store houses
the dockyard all dry...(now)
(then)...2yrs back...
play of colour at New Iscon Temple,Ahmedabad
no matter what the scripture says, people would do what comes natural to them:the board on the right hand side forbids sleeping in the mosque
the famous stepwell of Adalaj showed us our dump too
Interestingly...Rani no Haziro reflected the neglect, a shelter to many homeless, its in a verge of being consigned to oblivion...
peace found here
light and shadow:evening falls,Jama Masjid waves good bye...
R.I.P
followed by her attendants the Queen rests in peace
