India, 360 Degrees at a Time, Part Four
Here’s the fourth part of my (http://0pointer.de/blog/photos/india-360-at-a-time-1.html) ongoing (http://0pointer.de/blog/photos/india-360-at-a-time-2.html) series (http://0pointer.de/blog/photos/india-360-at-a-time-3.html).
After Hampi we went to Bangalore to attend foss.in (http://foss.in/). (Fantastic conference, btw. The concerts at the venue are unparalleled.) From there we flew up to Udaipur (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udaipur), in Rajasthan. Udaipur is (among other things) famous for being the place where the central scenes of Octopussy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octopussy) were filmed. Octopussy’s famous white palace is on Jagniwas Island in Lake Pichola:
This panorama was taken from another island in the lake, Jagmandir Island, which is visible in the following shot on the left:
Udaipur’s scenery, seen from the Maharaja’s City Palace down onto Pichola Lake:
That’s all for Udaipur, tomorrow I’ll post more panoramas, from other stops of our trip.
