Shades of the past and the present in Mumbai

I did not find many cut-outs or hoardings except a few, like the ones in the first two pictures. Roads were wide and well laid, at least the ones on which I traveled. There were several decrepit buildings I saw – such as the one in the second picture – that exuded an old-world charm.

But the winner was the swanky domestic terminal at the airport. Have a look at the fashionable bar… I didn’t mind splurging a bit and sitting on the bar stool.
