Empty Streets on my way from Aberdeen Bazaar to the Cellular Jail
Streets and footpaths seemed much better curated than rest of India
Can’t understand how governments support homeopathy
The ticket counter was closed, I was too early for the laid back city of Port Blair. The museum opens at 8:45 am for the public
The entrance to the Jail from outside
Wing No. 1 of the cellular Jail
A view from underneath the famous Peepal tree. The tree has been a living memory of the place since it was constructed.
Two of the (originally)seven wings of the Cellular Jail merging into the central watchtower. Only 3 now remain intact
The colorless and upright wall of the Jail give an eerie feeling given the history of these tall walls.
The modern galleries lay in contrast to the olden walls onlooking the visitors
A gallery showcasing the history of Port Blair has been recently constructed. Also, this was the only place in whole premises with any Air conditioning shading people from tormenting heat and humidity
A typical cell within the Jail. Most rooms had entrance from one end of the wall giving some privacy in a corner.
The corridors of the jail gave a trapped view of the outside world
Latch system for all cells consisted of dedicated slots and huge bolts
