Jagdamba Ayurved Aushdhalya

Our place is at 1294 Chandpole Bazar, specifically on Baba Harish Chand Marg. We are right across from Vikram Bal Niketan School, so we hear the kids during their break times and when school lets out. The bazar is always moving. People are everywhere, bikes are honking, and there’s a lot of energy. We’ve grown accustomed to the rhythm of this street. Our shop is tucked in there among all the others. We keep a lot of traditional items on hand. The wooden cabinets we use have been around since we opened. They have a certain character to them. When you walk in, you’ll see us busy with something or other. Maybe we’re sorting out a new delivery or just sitting with a cup of chai. We don’t have a website or any of those modern things; we just talk to people face to face. It’s a small space, so it gets crowded if more than three people are inside at once. We don't mind. It makes the day go by faster. The floor is made of old stone that stays cool even when it’s hot outside. Sometimes the door sticks a little, but we know how to nudge it. We stay open until the market starts to quiet down in the evening. It's a living. We’ve been part of this street for a long time and we know the other shopkeepers well. It is a busy life but we enjoy it.
