THE WASHING MACHINE

Dhobi Ghat, Mumbai, 2023

Dhobi Ghat is a neighborhood inside the megalopolis of Mumbai, This place has its peculiarity in the facts that the entire neighborhood was built on order to become a proper Washing Machine, a laundry "room". But instead of normal laundries, here people live, play, work, sleep and eat. The washers, known as dhobis, work in the open to clean clothes and linens from Mumbai's hotels and hospitals. It was constructed in 1890.
