This is where diamonds come from. In the hot, noisy and narrow streets of Surat, on India's west coast, men - and it is only men - sit down in bare feet to trade the world's diamonds.

For all of the reputation of the European diamond-trading houses, this dusty industrial city is the diamond capital of the world. Ninety-five per cent of the world's diamonds are exported from India, the country's Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council says.

Tourists are assaulted with the boast that of every 12 finished diamonds in the world, 11 of them were cut and polished in India, the vast majority in Surat.
