An Umbrella Story


This post is a photo essay stirred by an umbrella I bought from the Desert Handicraft Emporium run by historian and curator L. Narayan Khatri. If you ever happen to visit Jaisalmer, you have to visit the Thar Heritage Museum founded by him. 

The Golden City gives one a picturesque memory of its nomadic lifestyle and the folk tunes, of a land once submerged by sea, of the glorious Meghadamber, the celebrated and haunting Sation Ka Pagothia where thousands of Rajput women performed Sati... This post is for Jaisalmer. See you in Winter!
