    The eldest generation is often mistreated in Lahachowk. The mothers live with their sons whose wives do not want to care for the elderly mother-in-laws which causes them to often visit the friendly neighbours homes to seek positive atmosphere. by: hetahannaloviisa Views[654] This bespectacled man is a regular in Salt River, a semi-residential area of bad repute that borders the industrial hub of Cape Town. I met him outside Fargo's trading - an outlet store frequented by Cape Town's muslim community for their huge range of spices and exotic food items. The abortion poster on the pole behind him is not an unusual sight. by: loverock Views[606] At least once in a life time, visit Varanasi and take a holy dip in the river Ganges - this is what a typical Hindu believes in India. Especially, the elderly wait for an opportunity to visit Varanasi, irrespective of their old age, health condition, financial situation etc. by: photojournal Views[757] Heading north by the coastal road from Saranda. The wonderful scenery is disturbed all the way long by rubble from ongoing constructions. by: zsumaksa Views[1269] «Old Buddha statues, Luang Prabang, Laos» Luang Prabang, Laos, December 2012. A collection of old Buddha statues can be found in Wat Xieng Thong. Only one of these statues keeps the original golden colour. This is the most magnificent buddhist temple in Luang Prabang with a beautiful and unique architecture and decoration. by: rosafurtado Views[1378]
     
    An elderly woman and her daughter sell animal feed at a local market in Jauja, a small town in the central Andean plateau that was once Peru's capital city. Peru is becoming increasingly urbanised as more and more youth move to the big cities to find work as clerks or taxi drivers, leaving the elderly behind to tend to farms. Likewise, as Peru modernises, farming is becoming more mechanised. As a result, a treasure trove of knowledge about ancient agricultural techniques, as well as many unique cultivars, are slowly being lost. As these elders have no youth to mentor, their knowledge dies with them. by: loverock Views[716] I met this beautiful potato seller at the famed Andahuaylas market in the central Andes, just north of the Sacred Valley. The rich soil allows for the cultivation of many crops, and the land is irrigated by waters flowing down from the higher peaks of the Andes. The market is almost 3 kilometers long, selling everything from second hand clothing to livestock, vegetables and cheap chinese imports. Spices enliven the air and the colours and motion of the place is overwhelming. Farmers from the country, carrying sacks full of hundreds of variety of potatoes (a crop native to Peru), sell their wares on the large concrete pavements set up for stalls, shouting prices and flagging down potential customers. Should you feel the need to escape the chaos, just cross the river to the livestock section, buy yourself a horse and ride off into the sunset. by: loverock Views[891] For you, it is an attraction. For me, it is life by: tusharm Views[577] Photo taken at a mechanical workshop in Sovereign Hill, Vic. In this picture one can see that the basics still rules. This are the tools and machines from which the new technology is emerged. by: endlessvoage Views[1030] Old, Massive but Cute by: dlife Views[419]

    Day two we visited Laguna de Chaxa Salt Flat home of one of three species of flamingo called the James Flamingo. The two other species are the Chilean and Andean Flamingo. Some are pinker than others depending if their diet is from algae or brine shrimp. : by danidawnandstevo, Views[466]
