Worli Fishing Village

Worli is neighborhood in Mumbai that was one of the original seven islands to make up the city. It's now a mix of upscale residential buildings, shopping, and restaurants, but the original fishing village dates back 600 years. The roads are paved, the homes are solid, and the people welcoming.

Here's a few photos.

The sale.

Some vegetables for your fish.
