Chandni Chowk

Chandni Chowk is located near Old Delhi Railway Station. 

This is one of Delhi's oldest and most popular markets.

There are different markets for almost anything you can think of. Books, toys, gifts, weddings and more. Jewellery, fabrics, electronics, sarees, suits, lehengas, spices, dried fruits and much more. Perhaps the busiest market right now, Chandni Chowk is found in Havelis, which tells the story of a bygone era. This market has a variety of things that buyers can buy both for themselves and at home. Since this market is a wholesale market, most items are heavily discounted.


The market's narrow strip is also a retailer's paradise. Aside from shopping, the place is equally famous for its restaurants, street food and Indian snacks. 

Chandni Chowk makes you feel like you are shopping in old Delhi. Since the 17th century, this place has been called Delhi's 'shopper's paradise'. During Shah Jahan's reign, a tree-lined avenue ran through the center of the moon-reflecting canal. This gave rise to the name 'Chandni Chowk' which means something like 'a place under the moonlight'. Shopping in Chandni Chowk is a pleasure. The market is spread over several streets, and these narrow streets are filled with a vibrant selection of clothing, perfumes, electronics, jewellery, candles, statues and lifestyle goods. Chandni Chowk Market is famous for its diversity, authenticity, food, bridal lehenga, Zari and Chikan creations, sarees and over 1000 types of sweets.


However, Chandni Chowk Market is full of wholesale outlets for sarees and bridal lehenga. We recommend that you research wholesalers before going to the market. Otherwise, you may be fooled by the price of the product.
