Connaught Place: Buy anything you like!

Connaught Place, Delhi.

Connaught Place in Delhi is an area where you can virtually buy anything from jewelleries to watches to clothes and much more. You can choose from a variety of clothes and electronic goods as well. I really like Connaught Place a lot!

What to buy: As I said, you can buy anything you wish to. Clothes, jewelleries, electronics, watches, toys and much more. Most of the stores here sell quality goods, so you don't need to worry much.

What to pay: The amount you spend depends totally on what you buy and from which shop. However, expenses may range between INR 2000 to INR 20,000 (USD 45 to USD 400).

Chandni Chowk Market: Toys, Clothes, Jewelleries

Chandni Chowk, Delhi

I have been to many places in Delhi, but the market place that I liked very much was the Chandni Chowk Market. The area may seem conjested, but you can get anything here from toys to clothes and much more. There are shops which sell goods at very cheap rates, while others offer quality goods at high prices. You can go to Chandni Chowk if you are visiting Delhi. But be aware of fake goods and sellers who promise to give quality goods at cheap prices.

What to buy: At Chandni Chowk I usually prefer buying toys and small to medium birthday gifts or presents.

What to pay: This entirely depends on what you are buying and from which shop. However, you can expect to spend INR 1000 to INR 10,000 (USD 25 to USD 250)

Hangs the Bras: Hangs the Bras

There are so many bras of such colorful and hot trendy look on sale here, it looks nice and beautiful to me, so I help to promote the products to the world, hope you like it. I don't know what purposes to wear bras this colorful, probably its some kind of Indian culture. Or probably I made a mistake that these hanging items were not bras, they were something else, something to wrap around on your head??

Don't forget to buy Indian bracelets or bangles, its very cheap in Paharganj area, you get the price like 20Rs of a whole bunch and 40Rs for another bunch. The woman in picture is waiting for customers, I bought some from her, its silver bracelets cost me 20Rs for five. She is in the middle of the Paharganj street, very easy to find her.

This is not Gods products, this is I believe for women to wear in the summer, I don't wear this, I don't know the size and materials used, but I want to show tourists what you can get here. There are so many women clothings in Paharganj areas, I saw many women tourists in huge bags, they carried those bags with smiling faces.

God Sling Bag is one of my collection of God products, the bag is quite practical and water proof, the cost is ridiculously cheap, don't ask me the price please, you just walk to the shop and grab 5 and you will be surprised to pay so little. I carried a Buddha bag while strolling, very cool eh.

Hindu forehead mark (Tilaka): Hindu forehead mark (Tilaka)
l_joo profile photo

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

l_joo 2855 reviews

Quick, quick tourists, quickly come to grab some cheap modern stick-on Tilakas for 5 Rupees per pack. I saw this roadside vendor full of customers surrouding the stall, I was curious and I walk near it to see so many ladies busy selecting the stick-on things. Tilaka is the spot where Hindu peoples put on their forehead but this one on sale is a piece of plastic made product that you can stick on and off easily, just 5 Rupees with hundreds of designs.

Gods T-Shirt

Gods T-Shirt is so beautiful, this is the Gods T-Shirt now owned by me back home. I didn't wear but keep it as collection or I can use it for decoration later. The shop owner told me it was something God Krishna, I am not so sure about the name but I take it as something colorful and beautiful. The moment I was in the shop buying this Gods T-Shirt, I heard another foreign tourists telling the shop owner "...no, no, no, I don't want God, no Gods, no Gods please...", and that I supposed he/she is an atheist., hahahaha....

" This is the best price only for you sir, 900 Rupees sir, best price for you.....", you walked to another shop, the best price of the same exact product is 250 Rupees. This is the crazy prices calling in tourists areas, some vendors just thinking this way, so if you don't want to spend too much, just be careful.
