These are the falls just down the Waghur river from the Ajanta Caves. This is above the falls.
This is looking down the toward the falls. Water collects in a series of natural cisterns, each filling and spilling into the next.

Except for old firehouses, one doesn’t see a lot of red buildings. So this one in the Fort District caught my eye. I didn’t realize until I returned home that it’s the home of “The Bombay Samachar,” which is the oldest continuously published newspaper in India–having begun in the year 1822.
