Bu Halima Enclosure "Somewhere Saturday"

This is the gate that opens into the tomb garden of Bu Halima in the same park as Humayun's Tomb. The gateway dates from the 16th century. I don't know if the gate above is that old but it looks like it. This is in New Delhi, India, from my visit there in March of this year.

  1. Amazing images Benjamin, considering the gates are so ancient they seem to be holding up pretty well. Also your previous post, the Salal plant, I agree with you the flowers are so different, a bit like cotton wool balls, lovely!

  3. I love the details that you've captured in the door. It looks old yet imposing, especially with those spikes.
