Nice Leith thanks for posting, I found something interesating for my upcoming trip in November. Dawoodi Bohra houses, now I just have to find them on a map somewhere.

Outlook Traveller does some excellent guides to destinations in India at around 150 rupees they are a steal.

Here's something else of interest, like me you've probably seens these guys but never realised what they were up to.

Eureka, I'd heard about this place in Delhi but I've now managed to track it down to West Delhi. It sounds like a really interesting place to visit.

cy, could you possibly be looking for what i know as vohra houses in gujarat? if so, try siddphur - they are amazing. i have posted some in one of my galleries. a friend said that she felt she was back in prague, except for the cows of course!

this link was interesting:

Yep that's the ones. thanks for the link IWTGB, very interesting, Sidupur might have to wait, as I already have packed itnirary.

The short film was great, very unusual style and something I hadn't heard of until today. So thanks the Aussie Tree folk for that great info. Something to look for in Ahmdabad. My camera is going to be busy.

Whilst we are swopping great travel tips take a look at this place, India never fails to surprise me. Jyoti Da this is one to visit for you.

Cyber,

Sidhpur is close to Patan (12 km east). In this area Patan and Modhera are a must, so spend few hours more in Sidhpur.

we did modhera, patan and siddphur in one day trip from ahmedabad. a long day trip, but doable none the less.

During the season these Kanwarias create huge traffic mess in certain parts of Delhi. Unfortunately a big part of the route I take to reach my office is along the Kanwaria trail.

Dear cyber bhai I don't know why our office server blocked the Tripura link you had sent. Will see it from home.
