    I love bangles shopping. I don’t really love wearing the bangles because they always hurt my wrists, but I love shopping for them because they are so beautiful. We are heading to India in three weeks and I am sure that we will go shopping in Chennai for bangles. :)

    Bindu, Arun, Zhu,

    Akila,
    Welcome here.
    I too love bangles for the same reason. They are beautiful and they make lovely tinkling sound.

    This photo is from Laad bazar in Hyderabad…. famous for bridal jewelry. I have seen people coming in groups from Chennai to shop for bangles, especially for weddings etc.

    Thanks, keep coming.

    Ram,
    Yes, I can imagine how it would be in night time. Unfortunately, I wasn’t there at night and being alone I already had my quota of surprises. :)
