    I was born and brought up on the KZN SOUTH COAST but spent most of my early life at my aunts house in Durban. We visited the original Indian market regularly for our fresh produce and other daily nessesities and not forgetting the cinemas on Victoria street. Alway finishing the day with a bunny chow at Victory Lounge. Living now in Cape Town since 2000, the video brings back memories. Thank you.

    I remember visiting the old "Indian Market" in early 70's on my visit from Cape Town... Big giant heaps of spices, looms indelibly on my mind... Thanks for revitalising old memories...

    Such beautiful memories. Its been ages since I visited the market. My young adult sons have not visited the market as yet, we always was concerned about the safety there, but good to know about the covered parking. You have captured this so beautifully. Thank you.

    Pam's Kitchen offers you an amazing experience with a selection of Heritage Foods and they know the history of Durban which is been eroded or neglected. The food is interesting and of exceptional quality and clean. When it is not too busy having them sit with you in conversation about the history of Durban is very educational.
    I believe that they run a similar set up at the Chatsworth Flea Market as well.
    Getting to the inside is a nightmare though!

    I last visited this market before it got ravaged by fire. My late brother in law who was a bus driver, he used bring me here for a meal. I am talking about when I was living with my sister in Bank road.
    I was just 8 yrs old then. Then, later around 1960 my friends I used to go and have our meals here.
    Old memories never die.

    Shew but you're either a brave star or too non compos mentis to go to Warwick avenue market .... No sane person ever goes there anymore 😮
    Most parts of Durban central have now become Nigerian / Zimbabwean terrority with an increase in robberies and muggings .... even the Workshop and the Wheel are no go zones these days

      Don't be so scared man, visit. I don't live in KZN since 2000. But whenever I visit. People keep telling me don't visit certain places but I still do. I haven't visited this market but will do next time.

    • @svmclever
      @svmclever Рік тому

      I've lived there before, take the fear out of your head.
      In actual fact, a safe place or an unsafe place doesn't exist.
      You create safety wherever you are by making the right decisions and you create danger by making foolish decisions.
      Everything begins with you. That's why we need to repent from wrong decision making, and use the wisdom of God to make the right decisions.
