Oh Wow!

Holy Cow! Yes that’s what escaped my lips the other day, when I saw ‘rickshaws’ in London. Every nook and corner of Soho had a rickshaw either waiting for passengers or passing by. It reminded me of Kolkata, as that is the only place I have seen a rickshaw.









I hear there are quite, a few places in the world that now boasts of these vehicles.

They are known as ‘pedicabs’ in London and are predominant in the Soho area so far. So make sure you hop onto one of them when visiting London.



Hopefully soon, I shall take a joyride in a pedicab and post pictures.

All World famous places (maybe most) has 'rickshaws'. I visited New York last weekend and took a joyride in a rickshaw in the whole of Central Park. That was really an amazing trip :) I remembered Kolkata every moment of that ride. Unfortunately dont have any cool rickshaw pics like these :P
