HKV As A Whole

When one is in Hauz Khaz village, it sees diversification. Hauz Khaz being an urban village attracts may customers and tourists towards it. When we enter Hauz Khaz village we see jam packed traffic. We see autos and we see porche cars too. We see variety of elements in hauz khas market.

Okay! So now the market area. HKV is full of creativeness. We see creative hoardings, the logo of every cafe is amusing and way too creative. Even though the interiors of cafe is breath taking and the music the play can make a person chilled out. Every cafe is made with a theme. For instance, cafe Lights Camera Action is bollywood theme based. Its menu to walls to t-shirts of the waiter, everything has a essence of bollywood.

Behind the shining street and glamorous world resides a village. Not the colorful street but 'tooti' streets. Houses made of muds, wood logs and tin sheets. The ambience was totally different than the market area. People busy in errands not caring about what's happening in market. They live in their own world. While interviewing few, we came to know that the residents do face some problems. Like the sanitation problem, lack of water, hygiene and high rents. But the best part children their go to schools. They are well educated and they can speak english too. Here are few glimpse of the SLUM AREA!
