Old Delhi Exploration

Take in Chandni Chowk's culinary delights

Heading down Chandni Chowk in Old Delhi, partly on foot, partly by cycle-rickshaw, one can palpably experience the sacred yet secular way of life that is so typical of India. Interestingly, apart from the assortment of stores selling everything from jewelry to sarees, numerous eateries have also been established along these bylanes that add flavor (literally!) to the old market – and tangibly evoke a sense of history.

You can also embark on curated food walks in these old quarters. From savoring some of the most mouthwatering snacks to indulging your sweet tooth, from visiting Asia’s largest spice market to diving into the culinary history of the area, the walk down Chandni Chowk can be a sensory overload!
