Golden carpet

There is a Golden Carpet every morning during summer when the road is covered with the peltophorum flowers. This is on a street in Bandra (East), a laid back suburb of Mumbai

Golden street...


The peltophorum petals fall to pave the streets with gold! The sweepers curse it every morning though! This is a familiar sight in most of Mumbai during summer.
The photograph displayed has been taken in a street of Bandra ( a suburb famously known as the Queen of suburbs!)
