On a serious note, one thing I noticed about the fort were the arches. I was hoping to count all the ones I see, but I lost count at 40!!
The Diwan-i- Aam (I think this was also known as the public audience hall)
This was already off- limits to visitors |
The 27 offices inside the Amber Fort, next to the Diwan- i- Aam
The arches and pillars are so stylized, |
The Sheesh Mahal overlooks this garden
Beautiful |
Having these women around the fort walls made the visit all the more interesting.
They weren’t very friendly though haha 😀 |
It came to a point when I really couldn’t resist anymore so I asked to have a photo taken with one of them. So she agreed.
The window to India… |
A deserted hall in one of the corners of the fort. Quite a haunting sight, isn’t it?
Oh if these walls could only talk! All that history! |
On one of the arches, sat a monkey! 🙂
And on another arch, sat yet another monkey, with her baby 🙂 *Awww*
I wonder though, are these monkeys rabid? They’re adorable though (from afar :D) |
And here’s a parting shot taken from inside one of the courtyards.
If you take a closer look, you might just see a Kama Sutra pose painted somewhere 😉 Did you find it? 🙂
What a day it had been!
