What is Dhobi Ghat?
'''Dhobi Ghat''' or '''Dhoby Ghaut''' is a word used in various parts of [[South Asia]]. It means a place where the traditional ''dhobi'' caste of washermen and women go to wash clothes. The word usually means a place near a river or stream, in [[India]], [[Pakistan]] and [[Bangladesh]], but a ''Dhobi Ghat'' doesn't necessarily have to be near a source of natural water. The world's largest ''Dhobi Ghat'' is said to be in [[Mumbai]], India. It figured in the famous ''[[Dhobi Ghat (movie)|Dhobi Ghat]]'' (2010). [[Category:Pakistani culture]] [[Category:Indian culture]]
