dbo:abstract |
Dhobi ghat or dhobighaat is used throughout south-central Asia to refer to any laundry-place or washing-place where many launderers or clothes-washers are present; they may be ordinary people or professionals (traditionally men) who use the place to wash clothes and other linen. Mumbai has an extensive dhobi ghat known as Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat and there are several other dhobi ghats in Mumbai. By comparison, although the differences are subtle, a lavoir in Europe is usually an officially-constructed public washing-place in a village, frequently walled or enclosed, and often roofed; a laundry is an organisation providing laundry service or a place where clothes are washed; and a laundromat or launderette is a place with mechanised or automated laundry machines, usually but not always self-service.
