Patparganj apartment

Location
Patparganj, Sah Vikas housing society 68 (East-Delhi)

Patparganj is situated in the East part of Delhi which you can reach by crossing the Yamuna River – a sacred, but ‘dead’ river. This neighbourhood exist of Group Housing Societies of which most got developed by the DDA (Delhi Development Authority). Each society owns a group of apartment blocks – mostly multiple story-buildings – that are surrounded by a parking lot, a small entree ‘reception-building’ and finally a fence.

Going out of my apartment, I descend four stairs and two minutes later I cross the entrance-gate and continue my way towards the market of Madhur Vihar – a chaotic meeting place of a wide variety of stores, carts and mobile stands. From fruit to tea carts, tele-fax facilities, 24-hrs ATM’s and bakeries; it’s all there. All of this surrounded by people and several kinds of vehicles, from bicycles, buses to autorickshaws. And, above of it all, a cacophony of sounds of pigeons, wheels moving over asphalt, bargaining and a lot of horns.
