My World #9

Click on image to view full size

Morning peak hour 'UP' ( heading from suburbs and other areas towards South Mumbai) traffic
at D. N. Road in South Mumbai

D. N. Road is an important road in Fort area in South Mumbai. J. N. Petit Library, Khadi Bhandar are on this road. The sidewalks are filled with vendors selling books, music cassettes, clothes, imported things like audio equipment, cameras, musical instruments and calculators etc. mostly imported from China.
The area is famous for its street shopping and the book stalls sell a myriad of books at negligible prices. Surrounded by old buildings the area is beautiful although getting defaced by the multitude of advertising banners.

    Cheap Chinese goods seem to be overrunning the world at the moment. I wonder what sort of subsistance wage the workers get?
    Looks like you have enough traffic to fill the road. LOL.
