DEHRADUN'S BEAUTIES

A JOURNEY IN DEHRADUN

Dehradun is for sure not the nicest city in India,what is attractive are the closenes to the feet of the Himalayas and exiting cities as Mussourie and Rishikesh. Despite that I spend a very nice afternoon walking and looking to all the exotic and attractive views. In the following just a few impressions.

MINIATURE PAINTING AT SURAJ KUND

Being in Jaipur as a tourist made me already aware about the enormeous efford to paint as was done siecles ago, using one single air of squirrel tail! On the event I find also one stall with a very nice gentleman, behaving like sales person, but also having is own miniature paintings with him. Prices start at 300 euros but it is worthwile.... this art will die now within our generation. So go and get it.
The pictures I made are not always focused, I had to make it under difficult conditions, more or less hidden.
