Built right next to the Mahabat Makbara. This makbara has(had, actually) really good marble tracery work on the windows. Most of the marble jalis are missing. Only one or two jalis remain.

A fine example of Islamic, Hindu and European architecture blended together, the Mahabat Makbara was built towards the end of the 19th cent. Sadly this place is not well maintained.

Tool Trader

Taken from Ellis Bridge looking over a tool trader's spot at the Ravivar Bazaar (Sunday Market) in Ahmedabad. The display of tools at this particular stall is about 4 times that which you can see here and is all set up for only one day a week. The market location is alongside the slum at the edge of the Sabramati River.
