#ThursdayTreeLove14: Boulevard of Dreams
We drove down these boulevard of beautiful trees, last month. These trees have been my travel companions ever since I was a child, as I have crossed them multiple times
But this particular homecoming happened after many, many decades. Lined on both sides of the road, these trees are ancient and are on the way to my birth place, Patnagar via Rudrupur on the Patthatchatta road, in Uttarakhand. They have always formed a beautiful canopy, their shadows deflecting the golden stream of sunlight. This boulevard of dreams took me way back in time, when I travelled this road with my parents. This when my Fathers drove his Maruti Omni, enroute a short shopping spree to Rudrupur, or I’d take a day trip to visit my dear friend, Ritu.

I love roads with canopies of trees Not so common here in the northland, but, further to the south in my country, live oaks make quite a tree lined boulevard even more beautiful.
Many memories attached to the pic. I love the way they formed a beautiful shade.
True Ramya Thank you for stopping by.
Beautiful dear, i have always been fascinated by trees planted on either side of the road, looks so beautiful and inspiring, thank you for sharing !
Thank you so much for your lovely words. So glad you stopped by. 🙂
Such a pretty pic. Homecomings are always so special. I’m glad you had a good time revisiting memories. Old Bangalore also had these tree-lined canopies along the roads once. However, merciless felling of trees has preceded most of the construction work in and around the city, leaving most of its citizens unhappy over the loss of green cover today. Sad story everywhere.
Oh I know what you are saying. Similar story here in NCR too. It’s so sad how we are mercilessly felling ancient trees to make way for brick and mortar! :((
These treelined avenues are so majestic almost like an archway welcoming you home!
Yeah Sunita, thats how it felt when we travelled to my hometown.
I love that and so feels like Bangalore. I love getting these kind of shots from the car too on our drives.
Thank you for joining!
Thank you for making me part of your TreeLove gang Parul 🙂
