Narrow alleyway between buildings with decorative pillars.

A striking glimpse into the realities of urban life in Delhi. Rapid residential growth often pushes ahead with little coordinated planning or regulation. As a result entire neighborhoods rise in tight clusters with almost no breathing room. Even historic monuments are not spared from this pressure. In this scene an apartment block stands only a few feet from Moth Masjid. Visitors inside the monument can look directly into private homes leading to uncomfortable situations for everyone.
