So How Crowded are we : India
When the world thinks about some Asian Countries - India specifically, the picture that comes to their mind is People -lots of people everywhere. While this is true but it is not crowded in all the parts. Let says, the place where I live in a big city named Gurgaon is spacious, the house is spacious, the streets are spacious, lots of space. While some other areas of the same city are way too crowded to make you feel choked. I think it true for other countires as well, some places are crowded while some other places are spacious.
But for India, its crowded for most part :p
For comparison, here is an interesting fact that I found out recently -
Finland which is one of the spacious country to live in has 17 people per square kilometer whereas India has 456 people per square kilometer.
But how does 456 people per square kilometer feels like or looks like?
Here I share with you one authentic crowded Indian market that will give you the feels of 456 people per square kilometer. The market I am showing is finest market 'Kila Road', Come with me..........
So you can clearly see, the ratio of people and vehicles on road is 50:50 :P
Not sure what this guy is doing in my picture, haha. But in reality he sells this little fruit we call 'Faalse'
Look at this board here, this particular shop owner wants only his customer to park here. Woooooosssh, it there any space you see? There is not. Most of the times when you visit such markets, walking is a struggle and driving the vehicle is also a struggle - 2 wheelers are the only possible option, forget the cars at home.
Keep Calm and Steem On
The good times are back :)

The crowds I experienced in India were most intense in the trains. I caught a cheaper train once and had to share my seat during the day with hordes, who fortunately left so that I could sleep on it at night. It was a culture shock for me coming from Africa with so much space and few people.
heheh giggling here. Yes cheaper trains are so crowded, there is no space to even breathe in some of them.
Cultural shock oh yes.
That's definitely very dense and looks chaotic. How do people manage in such situation?
People manage- because we are used to it. Some markets and places are like this only. Sometimes we visit these markets specially to feel the crowd haha.
Chandni Chowk is a market in capital city Delhi - no space to even walk sometimes. It just these little markets are so amazing and that is why they are crowded because we are so many and everybody wants their fair share on amazing markets. :p
I agree! Your markets are crowded, but also agree that we have crowded streets here in places. They have to live somewhere, right??
