Sun clock at the Christ Church, Shimla

Not many visitors to Shimla are aware of the magnificent sun clock at the entrance of the residence of the pastor of the Christ Church at the Ridge. The clock showed accurate day and night time with the rays of sun and moon, more accurate than your wrist watch, till a few years ago when new constructions were strictly banned in the area. However, due to installation of high voltage street lights and constructions around, the sun and moon rays to the clock have got blocked but the piece of art continues to remind the old world charm to the visitors. This picture was shot by me in March 2013 when I re-visited Shimla after a couple of years.
