    Juna Bazaar Pune

    Old is gold, and Juna Bazaar Pune , certainly justifies this saying. After a lot of contemplation, traffic hustling-bustling and wrong directions, I finally reached the old market.

    A Pune Photography feature. We’ve all been to Camp, explored those charming gullies, roamed around various kitsch shops and grabbed a beer at Toons.
