The Village

Posted By Deepa On November 13, 2006 @ 11:18 am In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled

Kharghar is one place where a new building is sprouting every other day. I cant say that it is populated yet but cant deny that it will be soon, and the day is not far..
One thing I like about this palce is that even though there has been light years of development in this area there are still some remanants of the ancient times.
I visited this village near the foothills and I was overwhelmed how close they live to a urban place ( approx 30- 45 mins walk ) yet they seem like they are totally cut off from the this world and have created a wolrd of their own.
