A sacred heritage

The month-long fasting and feasting of Ramzan holds a myriad meanings for various segments of people. A period of prayers for some, it's also an occasion of celebration. While adults enjoy socializing, for children it's time to feast on a variety of goodies piled up all over. Shopkeepers and petty vendors do brisk business. Food flies off the shelves and there's festive air all around. The Jama Masjid beckons the faithful and its surroundings don a fiesta-like look. Asha Ramachandran hits the food trail around the heritage mosque and comes away mesmerised.
