The weird otherworld of Indian graffiti

India has some very interesting street art.
Sometimes strange and bizarre with religious themes, sometimes ultra modern, but always beautiful just like the rest of India.

From a wall on the banks of the
Ganges in Varanasi

This is from a wall on the banks of the Ganges, during some times the steps will be covered with colorful assortments of drying clothes.





Artists from all over the world come to india to paint murals and do street art.
