I like to linger, a little longer, a little longer here with you

Corom Night

| It's a Carom night for some |
Saw this site at CR Park today. 
As my #culturewaali self wants to know the origin of anything and everything, 🤔 so I searched for it. 🤓
Interestingly The game of carrom is believed to have originated from the Indian subcontinent. 🙀 There are other historians who also believe that the game has Burmese or Portuguese origin. 
Carrom has been played for nearly two hundred years, although games of a very similar nature have been played for thousands of years under a variety of names.
Although no concrete evidence is available, it is believed that carrom was invented by the Indian Maharajas. 🤴🏾
One Carrom Board with its surface made of glass is still available in one of the palaces in Patiala, India. 👀
