Lahore

Drinking wine with you.
Getting warmer and warmer,
I think why not trade in this overcoat,
Made of leaves and dirt.
Then I look out the window.
For what?
Both worlds are here.
---Rumi---
--Badshahi Mosque--
(C. 1671) The beauty and grandeur the Mughal era. The fifth largest mosque in the world.

Street vendors.
Knives for Ashura.
Motor rickshaws.
