Yeah Alibaug is correct ..However since this wasn't my personal photo ..I had to give credit ....I thought you guys would scratch ur grey cells first .... ....But did you know that the Fort is unique in a way that even though it is built a few kms off the shore on an island, you can walk upto the place during a low tide .... The gradient is so less in that region ...

Your Mahabodhi Temple photo named as AndhraTemple.jpeg was really funny though ....hehehe...

That's what made it funny ..... Well Alibaug is a beach resort / fishing hamlet south of Mumbai in Raigarh Distt... The Fort (Kulaba Fort) is a famous tourist spot and one of the most famous forts related to the Maratha history ....
I had to give the original Photographers link as I didn't want to just copy it here....

One a funnier note, Its ironical to know that in Local parlance in Mumbai / Pune, the phrase "Allibagh se aya kya? is sometimes used to refer to someone acting like a fool/moron ...
