India

 

This is a perfect example of the extreme differences in India. The shacks and slums right next to the million dollar building. The Grand Hyatt hotel is right around the corner from all the slums. Sitting inside, walking in the lobby, and sitting down in the cool air conditioned padded lounge chairs, you would never know there is immense poverty just yards away. But sight from the slums on the street is quite clear their is affluence steps away. It's quite heart breaking. There is so much poverty-it's overwhelming.
