A hollow in the wall appeared to be a man's sleeping area, and a worker was napping there. The man was sleeping soundly with his chest exposed. He seemed to be exhausted. His upper body is tilted and he is about to fall on the side of the road, but the man shows no sign of getting up. He seems to be balancing naturally.

When Westerners come to Japan, they are surprised to see so many people sleeping on trains. However, I don't think this is a Japanese thing. Even in Kolkata, you often see people sleeping on the side of the road when you walk around. The man in the photo is just one of the many people sleeping on the street.
