Amritsar: A city of warmth and sweetness!
Amritsar is a city I have travelled to a few times. The Golden Temple is is spectacularly beautiful, and mesmerizes me each time I visit.
I LOVE the street food in Amritsar. I love the warmth of the people, the noise, the colour, the bustle, the crowd--all of it seeped in history, religion and culture.
So for today's sketch (I am doing a drawing challenge--one new picture, every single day, the whole of May) I thought I would pay tribute to an unknown Jalebi seller in this magnificent city.
Come back tomorrow for a new drawing and a new post.
If you have been to Amritsar, or have always wanted to go, tell me in comments :)

ReplyDeleteOne who stops by your posts is instantaneously taken to a different world.I like your portrayal of nature ,people and dwellings through paintings and blog.There is concern.love,appreciation ,closed with a thought to ponder.
ReplyDeleteHello maam my ancestors belonged to this amazing city. I love being there as the warmth n culture always pull you back to ur roots. Golden temple is a serene place ,one can spend hours without even realising the time. The city of Amritsar is also synonym to some mouth watering delicacies. I hope u tried the lassi , phirni and it's famous satpura (a baked flaky patty stuffed with mashed potatoes). Did u visit Kesar da dhaba and Wagah border?
ReplyDeleteNo matter how many times u visit this city it never fails to welcome you wholeheartedly.
I have heard so much about Amritsar. Some of my friends and relatives post photos when they go on vacation, and whenever they post about Amritsar, I feel like I was there too. Such a beautiful city. Will let you know if I ever visit.
