Nihang

Spotted this Nihang outside the Visa facilitation office which acts as the liaison office for most of the countries.

Nihang is an order of Sikh warriors, characterised by blue robes, antiquated arms such as swords and spears, and decorated turbans surmounted by steel quoits. The order can be traced back to the creation of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh in 1699, according to Sikh historian Dr Balwant Singh Dhillon.

On the extreme left is a professional photographer who will click pictures of tourists on demand and give them prints in 10 minutes. Then there is a couple engrossed with introducing their baby to the sea. Next is the balloon and toys seller waiting for customers. And then a dog looking for a playmate. Finally on the extreme right you have the ubiquitous selfie taker. All regular happenings at Juhu beach.
