Hauz Khas Monument, New Delhi

Of Pillars and Ancient Doorways

Posted on February 24, 2013May 18, 2021

I visited Hauz Khas last year for the first time. Then I went back again in January and roamed around the ancient ruins. I liked this passage most from all the pictures I clicked.

However it was not as quiet as the first picture will suggest. It was full of college going students who came with their guitar and all! One group was having a birthday party.

But some of them would leave the litter around. Not good, not good at all.

    I like the first picture… has a lot of depth. Reminds me of that picture using mirrors that gives an illusion of depth…
