Although it is officially “winter” in India, the daytime temperature regularly exceeds 30C. At the India Gate in the centre of Lutyens’ New Delhi, there is a fountain which provides great entertainment for children who need to cool down.

What an exquisite set of photos, what a fountain, and the boys on there just show how magnificently large it is. Amazing. Thanks for sharing, it’s a spectacular addition to the challenge!
Why, thank you. I’m glad you like them. I wonder if there is anything I can do to direct people to the pictures from your blog comments as the link isn’t working. I haven’t a clue about ping backs and such stuff. Ideas?

It’s like an enormous multi-tiered bird bath! Very refreshing on a hot day, I’m sure.
You are right, Karen / Elizabeth. The water in the fountain is clear, but the pool is green and murky. There is a different attitude to health and safety here in India!
I politely glossed over the issues of both health and safety regarding that fountain, but they did cross my mind!
