Huge palace well

August 14th 2015
After visiting Delhi and Agra, Bundi was a refreshing break away from the chaos, the annoying touts, rickshaw drivers and the mass levels of tourism. Instead we would describe Bundi as a smallish town (for India that is) with a lot of charm and a warm friendliness about it but still retaining that vibrant alive feel that we love about India.

Hi we're Chris and P. We have quit our jobs and sold our house to follow our dream of travelling around the world for 12 months!!! Let’s jump back about 2 years - We're driving to P's friend’s house for an evening meal when she turns and says "I've been thinking..." And what a thought that was indeed.

Well, well, well
These wells are so amazing! I love the patterns of the steps leading into them though I imagine now, they are perfect for breeding mosquitoes. The town also sounds so lovely with its colorful, somewhat peaceful alleyways, and of the friendly people--such a contrast to your Delhi experience.

I'm afraid I would have just stayed in bed reading. As usual, the food looks massively yummy!

well well well.
You would probably like Bundi it was a nice place. The alleyways had a lovely charm about them. Certainly worth a stop after Agra. If you are considering going and want to avoid being covered in sewage like us ?just avoid travel in august/sept ?
