I started implementing the idea of creating the blog yesterday which was Dussera or Vijaya Dasmi. My Bangali friends and relatives wishes "Shubho Bijoya" and with these words I start blogging.
Last few days of Navratri has been the travel time. My self and Leena visited the central Gujarat area which has good forest and some water bodies.
Leena and Nirav will keep posting some things in terms of thoughts like this in random manner. I being an architect, think in terms of sketches. On Vijya Dasmi we have started with pics ..
Last few days of Navratri has been the travel time. My self and Leena visited the central Gujarat area which has good forest and some water bodies.
The Jungle is of Panchmahal and Vadodara dricts, where the
roads are good. Big water bodies like Sukhi dam is located and the teak leaves
have started turning from green to light brown.
The rush to Pawagadh during Navratri was amazing. I saw huge number of pilgrims on
cycles. They are normally from Madhya Pradesh.
They move with colourfully decorated cycles which was a great sight.
The spots we visited were not
many. But if u see carefully each tree in the jungle is like a monument. The
tribal population is spread in small helmets
and clusters. These adivasi community has given pithora, rathwa and warly
paintings to the world.
On the way to Janbughoda we
visited Champaner mosque which is now world heritage site.
We could view Pawagadh hill from
distance. Evening pics are taken from the byepass road to Halol.
On Dussera our Rajput friends worship their weapons. I feel we all should learn from this parampara and keep our "astra shastra" like mind, body and intellect agile.
