Old-World charm

K.K. Mustafah

With business activity shifting to mainland Ernakulam, the streets wear a deserted look. But tourists still visit the place to get a feel of its old-world charm. The envoys of the US and Turkey were the latest visitors to the street, which is located close to the Jewish Synagogue.
