Bedeutung
Describing a path that is not wide.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Old Dhaka, 'soru rasta' are the lifeblood of the community. They are so narrow that two rickshaws often have to perform a complex 'dance' to pass each other. Kolkata's North district is famous for its 'soru goli'. These lanes are associated with the 'Bhadralok' (gentleman) culture and historical heritage. In villages, a 'soru rasta' is often a mud path between fields. Walking on these during the monsoon is a skill every villager possesses. Modern apartments are often built on 'soru rasta' to save space, leading to frequent complaints about fire safety and parking.
Directional Tip

Driving Warning
If a sign says 'Soru Rasta', do not take a SUV or truck there!
