Dharavi

Dharavi, Asia's largest slum. There are about a million people living in an area the size of 1 sq mile. From overhead you can't quite see the state of the buildings, but they aren't as well put together as you might think. In most of the area there is still little or no running water or sanitation systems, but most do have electricity these days. Posted by Picasa

I must say you have got a good shot to show that place...the huts are so packed!
