Based on the British Morris Oxford Model III, the HM Ambassadors were first introduced as yellow taxis in Kolkata in the year 1962. Since then, they have been as much a part of the city’s urban identity as the tram, the Howrah Bridge, and the Victoria Memorial.

Earlier this year for Paper Planes, I wrote about the terracotta temples of Bishnupur in Bankura — my mother’s ancestral home. To learn more about these magnificent temples of earth and stone, read my photo story here: www.joinpaperplanes.com/the-terracot...
The Terracotta Temples of Bishnupur, West Bengal
A group of temples — in a town that was once the epicentre of the Malla Dynasty — is a testament to the rulers’ devotion and the art of utilising locally abundant materials.
