The 5 minute walk from the sweet little flat I called home for 2 months to work was something I looked forward to each day. I would cross Pathwaadi gate, the ruins of Jamadar Fateh Mohamed building, a beautiful heritage building restored and converted into the tax collectors office, the lane filled with stray dogs that ferociously chased me, the Mallik family lane, Hamisar lake view point(also, called suicide point ) , the old Swami Narayan Mandir, Darbar Gadh, Prag Mahal and the Maharani's palace. The morning blues and the evenings exhaustion would be forgotten.
One particularly windy evening I decided to walk down the steps of the dhobhi ghat .
The sight was beautiful, the stench however,unbearable .
