Ziplining through jungle

After years of wanting to try this ziplining adventure, I finally took the opportunity to go on the Flight of the Gibbon.

Over 3km of zipline through the jungle.
Yes.
And there really were gibbons to see, too.


For most of the time, you can't see just how high up in the canopy of the jungle you are.  But then the view opens up and you see the beautiful, tall trees and the river far below.
Swinging through the trees with the gibbons (and guides)--great fun.

Jungle Book kingdom

Say you were walking along an empty-for-Delhi path through a park and you came upon this place.
What would you be reminded of?

Me, I thought of the Jungle Book and I wondered where King Louie was.

Isn't it amazing, though?
So lovely.
It's just marked as "enclosed tomb". Nothing else memorable, and there's not much care for it's preservation.

Even with all the trees and plants trying to take over, so much detail is still preserved all these many years later.

And nobody else is there to appreciate it. Where are the monkey's at least!
