The Blue Pottery
The Blue Pottery or the only form of pottery which is not made from clay. Yes, you heard that right. It's a stone based pottery. The name 'Blue Pottery' comes from cobalt blue dye used to colour the pottery.
A traditional craft of Jaipur of Central Asian origin. It is believed to have originated in China and then spread to Turkey & even Netherlands.
The Persian art of blue pottery came to Jaipur from Persia (as the name suggests) & Afganistan. It was brought to India during the Mughal period via Kashmir.
This pottery is made from an Egyptian paste by mixing quartz stone powder, powered glass, multani mitti/Fuller's earth, borax, gum & water.
Beautiful items like tiles, door knobs, pots, vases, plates, lamps are produced. The biggest advantage of this pottery is that it doesn't develop cracks; it is hygienic & is quite suitable for daily use. In recent times more colours like green, turquoise, yellow etc are being used.
In fact I can never get bored of travelling to the Pink City of India over & over again, just to to get a glimpse of those gorgeous blue creations. The colour blue makes me smile every time.

The Jog Falls
The Jog Falls, one of the most beautiful & the second highest plunge waterfall in India is tucked away in the dense evergreen forest of the Western ghats of northern Karnataka in India.
This is where river Sharavati takes a plunge from a height of 830 feet. The waterfall has four distinct cascades called Raja, Rani, Roarer & Rocket.
The best time to visit this place is during the monsoon season, from June to September when each cascade has sufficient water surrounded by plenty of greenery & beauty of the season.
This place is around 10 hours drive from Bengaluru, the capital city of Karnataka. Some of the well known tourist spots around this waterfall are Tyavarekoppa Lion & Tiger Reserve & an offbeat island called Honnemaredu.

Hyderabad's Spanish Mosque
The beautiful treasures of Hyderabad in India continue to amaze me till date. Visited this mosque last evening.
We were given a warm welcome by Aurangzeb & he shared some interesting facts about this place. But on reaching home, I found to my dismay that only a part of the conversation has been recorded....very unfortunate.
Now coming back to this beautiful structure, it is popularly known as the Spanish Mosque - truly an eye catcher with its intricate mouldings & gilded minarets.
The mosque inspired by Moorish architecture in Spain was commissioned by Paigah noble, Sir Vikar-Ul-Umra Iqbal-Ud-Dowla in 1906. I must mention here that Paigah is a family in the senior aristocracy of Hyderabad State who were associated with the ruling Nizam since its inception.
There is a prayer hall. It is interesting to note that the calligraphy on the walls is in Turkish instead of the usual Arabic. The pedestal for the priest along with a bookshelf resembles those of a church.
On one side of the Mosque lies the graves of the members of the Paigah family.
Considered to be one of the most beautiful & unusual mosques in India.
