Visible Information: This photo shows parking lot of the city's most popular shrine and a famous landmark and a wide road with less flow of traffic.The picture also shows another famous landmark of the city "chowk ghanta ghar" which used to be the city centre in historic times. An aerial view of the city fills the background. The parking lot in the foreground of the picture shows a majority of motor bikes in the parking lot while a few cars can be seen. The road parallel to the parking is not a busy one. Invisible Information: 1.The picture shows that people come to visit the shrine mostly on motorbikes which leads to the information that mostly lower middle and middle class families and youngsters often visit the shrine in the largest quantity. 2. The less busy road leads to the information that this area is no more the central business district of the city. The information that mostly lower middle and middle class families and youngsters often visit the shrine in the largest quantity may become knowledge about users of the space and may contribute to the planning of a more livable urban space designed according to user requirements.
