Om Star Building, Wadwhan, Gujarat | Photos of India

I've called this beautiful blue and yellow building the Om Star because of the central crest of the word Om.

My neighbour, Sunny Sharma, at RASA cafe translated the text over the door for me - it is a girl's school in the delightful old fortified town of Wadwhan - one of the highlights of Gujarat.

We were searching for some fine stepwells in the nearby countryside but the town itself is a delight. Narrow lanes, dusty streets, colourful buildings, friendly people, the hammering of metal water pots being made in backstreet workshops alongside women making the bandhani textiles for which it is famous. See our bandhani silk scarves.
