An enchanted garden

Yours truly was out with camera on Saturday. I went on a photo walk to two historic places, located opposite the upmarket Jor Bagh. From Saket, I took a metro to Jor Bagh. A friend had advised that I should visit Safdarjang’s Tomb first and then the Lodhi Gardens. Both are historic places. They are conveniently located opposite each other.

I duly went to Safdarjung’s tomb first. The premises are well kept. Here I share with you my pictures.

 1. Safdarjang’s Tomb

2. Lodhi Garden

The Garden is a walkers paradise. There are families with kids, out on a picnic. There are school children on an excursion. There are photographers. And there are bloggers and joggers. Some parts of the Garden remind me of an enchanted forest. But that is my imagination going wild.
