EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1910s in the picturesque hill station of Kasauli, nestled in the heart of Himachal Pradesh, India. This photograph transports us to a bygone era, as we wander through the bustling bazaar, lined with quaint shops and buildings. The cobblestone streets, shaded by towering trees, are reminiscent of a colonial past, with British influence evident in the red-roofed structures and the distinctive Lipton signs adorning the shops. The trees, lush and green, frame the scene, their branches reaching out to touch the clear blue sky. The bazaar comes alive with the sounds of haggling and the aroma of spices wafting through the air. The wooden crates and cases stacked high in the shops hint at the goods being sold within. A gramophone plays a lively tune in the background, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. The Lipton signs, with their iconic red seal, stand proudly above the shops, a testament to the British Empire's influence on the region during this time. Pure Jams, a popular product of the Lipton Company, was a staple in many British households, and the presence of these signs in Kasauli suggests that the town was a popular stop for travelers and expatriates. This photograph is a glimpse into the rich history of Kasauli and the impact of colonial rule on this beautiful hill station in Himachal Pradesh. The cobblestone streets, quaint shops, and British influence continue to draw visitors from around the world, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a taste of history and culture.
