New Delhi Photos

 

Entire buildings constructed using bamboo poles for supports and ladders

 

 

Motorcycles form a huge part of transportation

 

 

Endless bony cows wander the streets and, like some of the people, eat the garbage

 

This area is near the immense, busy railroad station.  There are many reasonable hotels in the area (where I stay when in New Delhi), where Indian businessmen and travelers stay, but few tourists.

 

 

An animal market of some sort, with goats, horses, etc.

 

 

Cows wander with the traffic

 

 

This immense and beautiful Hindu temple is walking distance

 

 

As is this wonderful mosque

 

 

The streets are crowded and busy by day, with many sleeping on them at night.  When I arrived at my hotel late one night, there were a dozen men and boys sleeping in the tiny lobby alone.

 

 

A barber shop on the street, with the mirror against the fence to the left.

 

 

People with various businesses living on the street

 

 

Young men friendly to the rare foreigner

 

 

These boys shined my shoes.  Chances are they have to live off the few rupees that make in a day.

 

 

In some dirt-mud parks, hundreds of people living in tents
