    I was totally thrown off track by the 'honey' until Akanksha's clue. Even so, I could not correlate 'honey' with it!

    Just a homophone :hide:. It is one of the key words. Honey+terrace +China
    or Honey+terrace+tiger mouth We can reach the answer.

    Dear Surekha,

    It is the world heritage symbol that clinched the answer for me. In fact, it was the first answer I got but I went on a wild-goose chase to correlate other images. It makes perfect sense after you explain the images.

    @Gauri03, Thank you very much for the wishes. We don't have broadband connection at home back in India and therefore the internet connection is not very stable. I will keep logging in every now and then to see the new puzzles even though I may not have time to respond.

    I will be back in action after January 31st.
