Purane Shehar

तुम क्या नये शहर मैं पुराने  शहर को ढूंढते हो
वह शहर अब यहाँ नहीं बास्ते

न रहती है वह गलियां जहाँ बेबाक निकल पढ़ते थे तुम
और आवारागर्दी करते रोज़ नए रस्ते निकाल घर पहुँच ही जाते थे

कभी पैसे दिए और कभी फ्री मैं खाई वह टॉफियां
कभी दोस्तों ने दिलदारी की और कभी तुमने खिला दी उनको कुल्फियां

कट्टी पक्की मैं ज़िन्दगी बुरी तो न थी
लड़ते थे , मानते भी थे , कोल्ड वॉर से परे थी ज़िन्दगी

हसते थे तो बेबाक हसते थे , रोते थे तो बिलख बिलख रोते थे
मुखोटे से बहुत परे ज़िन्दगी बुरी तो न थी

वह शहर अब शायद बस हमारी यादों मैं बसते   है
और फिर किसी कोने से झांककर हमारी हालत पे हसते  है

Tosh

Tosh is a small village in the deep valley of exotic Himalayas. It is less explored and perfect for people looking for some solitude. Once you reach Tosh you can either do day treks to nearby villages or simply relax and take it slow with no itinerary in mind. Here I am summing up our 2 days in Tosh. Day 1 ( Kasol -> Tosh ) Colorful houses on the way to Tosh Apple Orchids At around 12 we took cab from Kasol which dropped us at Bharsheni taxi stand by 1:30pm. Barsheni is the last stop which can reached by a vehicle. After getting down at Barsheri we crossed a bridge and started walking towards our campsite. Walking through small alleys gives you a feeling of getting lost, but the best part is you never fear of getting lost in this small and beautiful village where every corner is worth spending some time. People have painted their houses in vibrant colors and you cant help but click pictures. Initial 1km is steep as we wal ked though the village , climbed stairs an...

Ruins of Hampi

Just like humans even civilizations are mortal, they are born, achieve their peak, decline and then die. The only effort we as humans can take is not to let these civilizations die from the memory of the human race. Hampi was the capital of the mighty Vijayanagar Empire for almost 200 years. This capital city was built on the banks of the Tungabadra river and was one of the biggest and prosperous cities in the world during that period. At the peak of its glory, various kings built beautiful temples, massive palaces, and huge market areas.  It was this mighty empire that saved most of South India  from the rampage and plunder of Muslim sultanas  for 200 years. Like most of the barbaric destructions done in north of India, it was the Islamic invasions that left this city in shambles, The empire was center of hatred and Jealousy of 5 sultanas who together planned and plundered it.  Robert Sewell , in his book  The Forgotten Empire,  ...
