Fort cochin..

it looked like a dream city...as if waking up slowly from a sweet slumber on a lazy sunday....thats how fort cochin appeared to me on my second visit....it was love at first sight with this city....and my second visit seems to increase the affinity for the place....u turn one lane and you find a church...another turn and an old house converted into a beautiful cafetaria n gallery...whole city impeccable clean..a church here, a synagogue there, a dutch cemetry, old bungalows, chinese nets and the machchi market...jew street, spice market, fish market...dutch facades of houses....its a different world altogether...an architectural treat for the senses....heaven for mavericks like me, for whom culture and heritage are the most beautiful aspects of the old cities...adding vibrancy and life....filling up the senses..
