Doors of Jojawar

Jojawar is a fairly small community in the Rajasthan region of India.  We spent several days here and I really enjoyed this part of our trip.  It’s a more traditional community than many of the others we visited, with, for example many men in Jojawar having beards and wearing turbins — something you don’t see much of in India’s bigger cities anymore. 

 As I was sorting through my images from this community it became clear that there were many interesting doors in this small community, which is the theme of today’s blog.

I hope to share more stories from Jojawar with you in the future.

Some fine old doors there Doc ! 😀

D’you know they are bring prised out and sold as architectural salvage – often at high prices – to be mounted in hotels, houses as feature walls ? Otherwise I guess new owners would cast them out for firewood 😱

The View North

I was visiting a friend, and this was the view from their house. I could understand why they built their house facing this direction. I was taken by the beauty!
