Jet-Age Station

I am back with my favorite muse from Delhi- the Metro station. So far I have shown you Rajiv Chowk, Delhi Metro construction site and the view inside the trains. This time I present an above the ground station... This particular photo reminds me of the cartoon show called Jetsons because of the very futuristic architecture of the station. The metro rails ply on an overhead bridge in some parts of the city and then go underground from that level. The ride is fun, especially looking out of the huge windows is a great experience. :-)

Colorful Education

This wall-painting I spotted in a pre-nursery school located in Karol Bagh. The colors are so vibrant that I half wished that I could be that age again, when the hardest part of the day would be singing rhymes, eating lunch and reciting "A,B, C, D" to innumerable family members or family- friends. :-)

Rain-washed

It is raining in Delhi and I am stranded either in my office or my house. So I present a simple rain-washed park just outside my office. One day, hopefully sooner than later, my colleagues and me will finally take the much-promised walk in the lush grass of the park... one day soon. :-)

PVR Plaza

This is one of the very famous cinema halls of Delhi. Once a theater that held premier shows of iconic films, it was renovated and turned into a multiplex. Just like the Malls are eating away local shops, so are multi-plexes erasing the memory of halls that had huge screens, dingy chairs , yummy pop-corns and most importantly inexpensive tickets. Anyway, cinema is cinema... and Bollywood films are a treat to watch anywhere. :-)

Rangoli

These patterns, made using flowers, are called Rangoli. Now a days, Rangolis are drawn out to mark a celebration or festival. However, traditionally Hindus made Rangolis in their courtyards everyday to welcome the Goddess of Wealth - Laxmi into their homes. :-)

Theme day: No!

This is a sign that is often spotted in several shops in various markets of Delhi. The reason is simple... Delhi loves to bargain and the shopkeepers try to take special measures to refrain the bargaining enthusiasts from indulging in their favorite sport. The sign notwithstanding, I managed to get very pretty silver earings for a good bargain... Not every No means a No! :-)

Water n Lights

These are the fountains in Central Park, Connaught Place. The combination of water and lights surrounded by plush green grass, makes the park a great after-meal hanging zone for all who come to the various restaurants located in the market. I clicked this one just after one such outing!!! :-)
