Assorted images from Bundi

These are some images from around the small streets/alleys in Bundi (older Bundi is pretty much a one-street town) and the Bundi Fort on the ridge above the town.





One of the many hallways fallen into disrepair

A great place in the fort to catch some breeze, lay down and have a good rest or snooze.  It can be a hot haul from the town up to the Fort (which you have to pay to enter, separately from the Bundi Palace), and you have to watch out for all the monkeys that inhabit and hang around the hill - you can rent for ten rupees a big stick, which I would advise,  just below the Palace and Fort entrance.

One of the water tanks at the fort.

At the end of most wedding processions in the towns at night you'll see - and definitely hear - a portable generator being dragged along to power all the fluorescent lights being carried along on hired heads.
