We do find many markets , shops , local vendors on the ground level. Neither the vendors nor the customer need to make much effort for getting the business done. It is always an easy find at the ground level. However, when you are in religious tour your will find little shops too selling many things from toy to cosmetic to ornaments. I did find a well narrow lane of markets right on the hill top while on a pilgrimage .

Before one can proceed to the temple complex, one must cross through these lanes. In India we have many temples on the hill top, where lakhs of people visit daily. I too went to worship in one such location in Haridwar. The benefit of going in these spritual places is that we use to get a good physical workout. Climbing on top of these places needs a good trekking practice.

While many loves to climb through the concrete road made by the government and the temple authority. Still many people try to risk it by choosing the short cut, through the off road climbing on top. Which may proved to be very dangerous considering it has steep.slope.

After climbing and trekking on top , no one could ever imagin to find a small market place. But in India the religious places is now a centre of business and many people set up their shops in search of making mullah. So does here as well with many small establishment selling.many things in the narrow lane.

These places always remain overcrowded and having some security concern, I could not manage to take some good pictures, still whatever I arrange , I am sharing to make it a good #marketfriday for @dswigle (ie Denise)

The temple and the market is situated at Haridwar.

Chandi Devi Temple, Haridwar is a Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Chandi Devi in the holy city of Haridwar in the Uttarakhand state of India. The temple is situated atop the Neel Parvat on the Eastern summit of the Sivalik Hills, the southernmost mountain chain of the Himalayas

Not sure why but people do take interest in buying stuff from these shops. For sure quality wise, I doubt on these product, still people make sure to buy from them. They want to keep some momento of their religious trip.

This is my entry to #marketfriday. A market, where lots of efforts were made to keep everything organised and decorative, and also transporting the goods and the shopkeepers who made a good walk everyday to open their shops.

Stay Calm....

Keep Steeming...Steem On !!!
