India, 360 Degrees at a Time, Part Four

Post Syndicated from Lennart Poettering original https://0pointer.net/blog/photos/india-360-at-a-time-4.html

Here’s the fourth part of my ongoing series.

After Hampi we went to Bangalore to attend foss.in. (Fantastic conference, btw. The concerts at
the venue are unparalleled.) From there we flew up to Udaipur, in Rajasthan. Udaipur
is (among other things) famous for being the place where the central scenes of Octopussy were filmed.
Octopussy’s famous white palace is on Jagniwas Island in Lake Pichola:

This panorama was taken from another island in the lake, Jagmandir Island, which is visible in the following shot on the left:

That’s all for Udaipur, tomorrow I’ll post more panoramas, from other stops of our trip.
