Post #20: the Hauz Khas scene



We spent part of this weekend in Hauz Khas, a funky South Delhi enclave a short 
auto rick-shaw ride from our apartment in Defence Colony. 
Hauz means Water Tank (or lake) in Urdu and Khas means Royal. It is royal.  



Mosque, madras and tombs of the Khilji dynasty 

A beautiful look into 13th Century Delhi



 
The village near the ruins is a little artsy community by Delhi standards. 

We not only found a great South Indian thali restaurant, but also lots of 
galleries, including one with a painting that we bought.

The painting is a chaotic Delhi street scene, complete with our favorite vehicle: 

an auto-rickshaw. It will hang in Annapolis in May!
