today I showed Mr M the Mehrauli park
he hasn't been around as much as me so today I was the guide
first stop was Gandhak ki baoli...
gandhak means sulphur
they named it after the smell of the water
this is the largest stepwell ever built in Delhi....you can't see because of the water but there's a couple of storages below the waterline...so it's deep..
built around the year 1230
just outside this man was working...sewing...
all smiles
then we walked inside the park and climbed up on one of the tombs
it kind of gives you the jungle book feeling with the ruins and the forest
did see the minar of a masjid too.....
the Rajon ki baoli was next.....
more water in it today than last time I was here
too bad there where a group of loud young indian males around
there usually is though now that I think about it so I don't recommend any ladies to come here alone
next to the well is this mosque
I'm sad to say that nothing has happened regarding all the waste that is dumped all over the park
on our way out I met this little guy
he made my day with his green horns
hope you're enjoying your weekend dear reader
we sure are
