Been hearing whispers about this old Parsi colony tucked away somewhere, apparently it's got some seriously cool, almost hidden, architecture. Anyone know how easy it is to actually find these places? I'm not into organized tours, more of a wander-around-and-get-lost type. Hoping to stumble upon some amazing hidden cafes or shops while I'm at it. Seriously curious about this area.

Sion East can be a bit of a maze, but that's half the fun! The Parsi colony isn't exactly "hidden," more like... tucked away. You'll find plenty of interesting architecture just by wandering around; it's not super-concentrated in one spot. Just keep your eyes peeled, the older buildings are pretty distinct. As for cafes and shops, your best bet is to just roam around. There are some cool smaller places that aren't always on the main drags, so exploring the side streets is key. You might get lucky and stumble on something amazing! Honestly, getting lost there is part of the charm. Happy exploring!

honestly the colony you're thinking of is prob the one near the old Rustomjee building on Sion Trombay Road. it's not super hidden but most people just walk past the entrance cause it looks like a regular gate. the real charm is the little lane behind the Irani bakery where the chaiwallahs set up shop around sunset.

you'll find some pretty good vada pav stalls tucked in those side streets too. there's this one near the municipal school that does a spicy chutney version. just follow the noise from the evening cricket matches and you'll end up somewhere interesting.

idk about finding specific colonies but the sunset view from that overpass near the station is pretty great if ur into photography. just keep an eye on the traffic

I want to sell my old clothes

arrow_drop_up 1273 arrow_drop_down

have u tried the chor bazaar route? not for selling to shops but the friday morning flea guys near mumbadevi, some of them buy vintage/retro pieces outright and pay better than the bale walas if ur stuff has any character. got 800 for a bunch of old levi's and band tees there. thing is u gotta go early like 6am and know how to hold ur ground, they smell desperation instantly

one thing nobody mentioned, watch out for the weight vs piece thing. kabadiwalas and bale buyers pay by kilo so heavy stuff like denim and woolens actually earn more than fancy light stuff. i cleared a whole bag of old jeans to a guy in Malad for way better than what my branded shirts fetched. also wash everything before u show it, sounds obvious but dusty clothes get lowballed on sight.

honestly the timing matters more than the platform. end of month is when people get salary and actually buy, so list ur stuff around the 1st or 2nd. also post pics in natural light near a window, not on ur bed with flash, makes a huge difference on OLX and insta thrift pages. i've flipped a lot of my old stuff this way and the same kurta that got ignored at 300 sold for 500 when i relisted it properly.
