The most hectic, busy and cosmopolitan little square in the world !

Despite its size, hardly 500 square meters, the little square at the entrance of the village is the center of much commerce activity every day, involving locals and foreigners from many countries, all competing for space with vehicular traffic, with dogs and cattle... The square services a bus and taxi stand and is a transit crossroad and bordering a shopping area, a entertainment zone, a food court, a travel agent’s hub, a financial quarter, a police post to name only a few! Of course, everything is typically Indian; colorful, noisy and confusing yet functioning with marvelous efficiency much to the surprise of most visitors.
