Roadside Fruit Store

Shot near Shuanglian Metro Station in Taipei, Taiwan.

I was walking the sidewalk near Shuanglian Metro Station. The sidewalk was roofed like other sidewalks in this city. It looked like a part of the buildings. I saw this kind of sidewalk in many Southeast Asian countries. Maybe the roof on the sidewalk was desired to escape the strong sun in the tropical regions. Therefore, the ground on the sidewalk was in the shade always. And it was a nice place to do business.

A woman opened a roadside fruit store in the shade on the sidewalk. A long table was placed on the edge of the sidewalk. And various fruits were displayed on it. Some bunches of banana, mangoes, dragon fruits and others were seen. The female shopkeeper was sat beside the vegetables as if she was an added bonus. She was just talking with a female shopper.
