Doors and windows from ancient towns have always fascinated me; not only for the aesthetic beauty but also the architecture style and cultural richness that they depict.
Some of my favourite doors of Varanasi
Click on the above to have a closer look at these wonderful doors in the lanes of Varanasi.
Riot of colours; my heart did a little dance when I compiled this post.
A traditional door with a more modern one in the right frame, each has its own charm.
To make sure this doesn’t become a humongous post, this is the only alternative I have. After all, four doors are better than one, no!!
Pretty interesting! The top 3 (as per me) are the last one with the bright yellow color; the one you clicked while on an auto ride and for sure the Nepali temple doors. Enjoyed going through the photo blog Shubham!
Thanks for the share bro. Though I have been to Varanasi last time, I didn’t see even one of such wonderfully designed and intricate doors. It seems I have missed parts of that ancient town.
AH! This took me back. To the tiny lanes, to the crowded ghats, to the colours and the umpteen variety of doors<3 Planning to do a long pending post on Varanasi doors. Will tag yours when I do:) Also check out Nostalgichobos post on doors of Varanasi. She's done a fab one too!
