Armchair travel - Videos & Books of original photographs.

Feel like an armchair trip around hidden Rajasthan? Some of the most popular photographs in our showroom feature the architectural wonders that are ancient stepwells of India. Our new photo book "Buddhist Ruins and Village Stepwells of Rajasthan" is an account of three days looking for stepwells along minor roads in Rajasthan - see the whole book here. It's printed to order but an ebook version is only £5.99 and all proceeds will go to one of our friends in India with no work on account of Covid. Both versions have 58 pages.
You can also watch a 6 minute video: Buddhist Ruins and Village Stepwells in Rajasthan.

Our short videos give an insight into the wonderful places in the Photographs collection. Please watch and enjoy!
Here you can watch our video Stepwells of Bundi.
Ladakh & Zanskar - Landscape, Monasteries and People is a homage to our favourite part of the world & closes with Buddhist mantras from two of our Ladakhi friends.
