Started work last week. Magarpatta is dressed up pretty well. It stands like an oasis amidst squalor trying ever so hard to keep its squeaky clean facade. Towering apartment blocks, gleaming office buildings', ridiculous real estate prices. Broad roads lined with cooling green trees which are used only by pedestrians.
The only place to hang out is the aptly named Destination Center, a mish-mash of eating joints, ATM's , cigarette shops and a restaurant which is too pricey for its own good, considering a bottle of beer is twice the MRP. All roads in Magarpatta lead to DC and thronging it are people just out of office with their ID cards hanging from their trousers and shirts like price tags that haven't been taken off.
Haven't been to Pune proper yet. Hoping it will be less plastic.

In Pune, you can find a deserted street and a hill to climb right in the middle of one of the busiest areas. Oh and, you can walk in that city. It's awesome.
