Bijapur Again 2011

I recall that I wasn't too impressed with Bijapur last time I visited - I think this had a lot to do with a major modernization project that was in progress - the whole city resembled a building site. This time around I absolutely adored it.

The sights were nice, but my best experiences were wandering around the rustic back streets, whilst young and old called out for me to take their photo. It's nice to have such wonderful memories of the place.

Some of my photos are now available to buy in a variety of sizes and finishes, or as digital files, at SerenityPhotography.co.uk. Search through my entire library of stock images here, including all my stock images of India.

You can keep abreast of my travels by visiting my website underwater-girl.co.uk.
