18th Century Houses at Khotachiwadi Mumbai

KhotachiWadi is a heritage village in Girgaum Mumbai,India.It was founded in the late 18th century by Khot,a Pathare prabhu, who sold plots of land to local East Indian families.Wadis, or hamlets, are organized on the basis of religion or caste and distinguished by this unique sort of cultural integrity. They still retain much of their traditional architecture and daily life patterns, which are fascinatingly out of sync with the rest of the city.Tiny Colorful Cottages with wooden framed balconies,bright color on walls and Portuguese architecture in midst of tall glistening skyscrapers is definitely a photographer's delight.Its one of great place to escape from Mumbai within Mumbai in narrow cobbled lanes,Goan Architecture!
