Again, a beautiful tour of your home country. Thank you for the visit and the information you shared with us. You liked the flower designs in carved in stone and I have to admit that I do too. When I saw what you were pointing at, I was wondering how deep the carving was? On the other hand, the door-knocker details are simply exquisite! Namaste :)

Thank you eric, looks like we have the same appreciation of flowers as well as art. A lot of the 'paintings' are actually like collages because they are not flat and have texture. It's quite amazing! And yes, the door knocker must have taken someone a really long time to make. Back in those days, the carpenters and blacksmiths were like artists, their greatest works of art are in the every day things they use.. They're just not as widely appreciated as things like paintings etc, but they required a comparable amount of skill.
I can't agree more! I have definitely noticed that too. Namaste :)
