Over the past few years, Indore has changed a lot. Be it the main MG road, or the lanes in Palasia, nothing is what it used to be some 15-20 years ago. Though, the old people might still recognise the old aroma these places linger still, but the ones who are coming to Indore after a gap of many years will be hard pressed to tell about the place they saw, when they were leaving Indore. However, Indore has many old places that have their charm intact and in this article; we are going to discuss some of them places:
Residency Area, Indore

The entire area surrounding to residency is really calming and if you are looking for few minutes of beauty in the middle of the chaotic traffic in Indore, you could stop by this place anytime.
