Description
Woman at the Window - India Rajasthan Udaipur.
As I was wandering around and enjoying the sights and sounds of this unique place called Udaipur in Rajasthan, India - In a quaint charming sloping cobblestoned street lined with old and weathered townhouses, I looked up and came face to face with this woman looking down at me curiously.
Udaipur is a city in the state of Rajasthan in western India. It is located 403 kilometres (250 mi) southwest of the state capital, Jaipur and 250 km (155 mi) northeast from Ahmedabad. Udaipur is the historic capital of the kingdom of Mewar in the former Rajputana Agency. The Sisodia clan of Rajputs ruled the Mewar and its capital was transferred from Chittorgarh to Udaipur after the city of Udaipur was founded by Maharana Uday Singh. The Mewar province became part of Rajasthan State after India became independent in 1947.
Udaipur is a very popular tourist destination. Apart from its history, culture, and scenic locations, it is also known for its Rajput-era palaces. The Lake Palace, for instance, covers an entire island in the Pichola Lake. Many of the palaces have been converted into luxury hotels. It is often called the "Venice of the East", and is also nicknamed the "Lake City" or "City of Lakes". Lake Pichola, Fateh Sagar Lake, Udai Sagar and Swaroop Sagar in this city are considered some of the most beautiful lakes in the state of Rajasthan.

What a wonderful capture of that weathered face Sue. Your image makes one wonder about her life, what she is wearing and what it is like on other side of that window.
