!ncredible India!

To know India, you have to visit it, at least once…

Near the building, this kind of motorcycle is very cheap in India. Something about 50$-100$

A cake, made of different vegetables and species. This shop is somewhere in the street.

A tailor, it’s his everyday job. He sews blanket and then sells them. Money is enough only for the rice.

School children on of the Indian holiday celebration, usually religious.

Many different kinds of species, nuts and candies. The mini-shop is near the road. So it’s not recommended to buy, if you are a foreigner.

Indian parliaments, located in the centre of the Delhi.

Musicians, they are at every celebration.

Women-builder, trying to earn some money to survive. Her home is where she works. Her 3-year old children are also with her.

Holy cows! They are everywhere: on the streets, on the roads and in the market. Drivers would better hit a pedestrian, than a cow.

Indian metro. Very clean, comfortable fast and silent. Wagons are from Japan. The metro is much better than Russian. By 2010 it will be built all over New-Delhi.

Going to work, build houses or working as the loaders. Working all day long and earning very very little money, only enough to provide rice and bread for their families.

Central Committee Office of Communist Party of India (Marxist). Located in the centre of New-Delhi.

People are going to the market to earn some money.

Statue of Shiva god, on of the angriest gods in Hindus religion.

Monkeys… usually you can see them in the parks and in the mountains. They are quite dangerous. They can hit you and even steal your bag or something. If you eat banana and a monkey sees you, you would better give it to her, to avoid attack. Monkeys in mountains (Himalayas) are not dangerous, they are friendly.

Dream of an electrician…

Poor people, they are everywhere, but mostly in the markets, along highways and in the slums. While you are in the traffic jam, they dance on the roads and ask for money…

No comments…

Sikhs… On of the richest castes in India. In their religion it’s not allowed to shave and to show hair on the head.

The woman is trying to chase the transport. I have no idea what kind of transport it is…

The elephant is on a religious celebration, going on the main road. And nobody minds the traffic.

One of the several millions Indian gods… Indians think that as more gods they worship, than more happy they will be.

One of the Indian religious celebrations… To feel the situation fully, you have to hear the sounds they shout.

Musicians, they are at every celebration…

Just the Indian old man drinking hot teal with milk, which he got in one of the temples for free.

He is trying to earn some money… His work is to convey some things from one place to other. He does his best using his bicycle. No need of big vans, just a bicycle. Respect.

A small boy in the slums collecting cellophane packets and selling them for very little money…

In the slums, many of them even don’t know what the school is.

Small village-slums. 30% of the population lives in such conditions.

No-no, he is not drunk, he just can’t live any more. He is very hungry and tired, just fell asleep.

Slums, many people begin and finish their lives here.

A holy palmer. He travels all over India and visits different temples. Hindus are sure that if you give money to these people, you will be blessed by gods.

It’s quite comfortable to carry things on the head, and as it’s seen on the photo, not only women do this.

Temple of Hannuman, the monkey god.

Just a poor person in one of the markets. Very often in poor families who live in the street, parents maim their children, so that foreign tourist could take pity and give them more money.

Motorbikes… There are very very many motorbikes on the Indian roads… And everybody horns, very noisy and always traffic jams, even in the nights.

In the mountains. Looks well, doesn’t it?

Rich Indians prefer to go to mountains in hot summer.

Incredible India! The country of contrasts. Civilization with many billionaires, new and old, technology and culture – that all is India. To feel India, you should see everything with your own eyes!
