Dazzling Dhobi Ghat, Mumbai

Brilliance of biggest open-air #laundromat adds a breath of fresh air to the environs.

 

Dhobi ghat dazzles due to the daily drudgery of 20 hours put in by 7000 odd #washermen, who whip-scrub-wash-dye-bleach-press around 100,000 clothes.

 

Despite changeover to mechanical washing, the manual flogging is still a preferred choice and a source of living for the hard-working #dhobis in #Mumbai
