  Pasar Chandni Chowk

  One of the oldest and largest enclosed bazaars in India, Chandni Chowk (Moonlit Square) is one of the most enticing and wonderful attractions in Delhi. Running through the middle of the walled city, Chandni Chowk is crammed with hundreds of shops, religious shrines and teahouses. It is an amazing experience to amble around the alleyways, looking and enjoying, or bargaining and buying. Here you can find almost anything, from electrical goods, clothes and jewellery, to mouth-watering delicacies. Built during the rule of Shah Jahan in 1650 AD, the bazaar grew by covering an increasingly large area of shops and storehouses with temples, mosques, gurudwaras, and subsequently it became the center of trading.
