DHOBI GHAT MAHALAXMI
A huge open-air launderette not far from Mahalaxmi station, built in 1890 and consisting of concrete basins with stones
The Dhobi Ghat is a huge open-air laundry located near Mahalaxmi station. It's one of the city's most photographed sights. Here, linen and clothes from Mumbai's hotels and hospitals are washed by hand. Built in 1890, the place is made up of concrete basins, each equipped with its own stone where the washers strike the textiles. A platform at street level allows you to contemplate this striking spectacle. We can take you on a tour of the site and show you the different areas.
