Visit to India

Dr. Senta Sillr and Dr. Norbert Pintsch were on two days visit to Amritsr, India (Sep 22-23, 2006) to explore special material for the Dolls of the World Project. In Amratsar, both the senior experts visited Khalsa College that “looks like Atchison College Lahore,” says Dr. Norbert.

They stayed at Bhandari’s Guest House – one of the three wonders in Amratsar. From the outside Gust House gives a look of Functionalism (architectural style famous in Europe in 1920s) and from inside it is Art Deco.
