Dirty and full of crime
May 2023
Very dirty area. After just little drizzle area just becomes unwalkable. Close to New Delhi station and everybody wants to just loot other people. Even the dhabas have bad food and people mostly don't think of others.

Surrender to the journey
Feb 2023
If one allows surrender. You don't fight it You take it in. Paharaganj will be ok. Filled with dirtiness, touts and India, there is a beauty that sits beneath her surface.

beautiful bazaar
Jul 2021 • Friends
I will never forget this place. There is beauty in every corner, walking down the main bazaar made me fall in love with India and then walking back to my hotel I fell in love all over again. It is beautiful, bustling and bright. I recommend this and if you are a shy person like me, get used to saying “No!”

Old Delhi Congestion
Feb 2020
1. Paharganj is a part of old Delhi and a resident of old school businesses.
2. This place is not recommended for first-time visitors for the right reasons due to the complexity of the area.
3. You will find various tourist attractions connected to this place along with hotels and eateries.
4. It is a complex locality due to its vast population and street connectivities.
5. Great for experiencing old school Delhi.
6. This locality is easily accessible by public and private transport.

Not for inexperienced tourists
Nov 2019
1) This place is the ghetto of India. It is NOT for foreigners who are not experienced traveling to Asia. It is dirty, cheap, and raw.

2) If you want nice and affordable spot in Delhi metro area, South Delhi is the place to be. Middle Class area with young and hip environment.

3) Only reason to live in Paharganj is to experience poverty, not even affordability. Since South Delhi is very affordable.

Definitely worth visiting
Feb 2020 • Couples
Good area to shop around. Ideal for fabrics, scarves, clothes, teas and household goods like tiffins. We got some great bargains and prices are all reasonable.

It is busy but not as crazy as old Delhi so we found it okay to navigate around.

Location for cheap stay and close to many attractions of the City
Feb 2020 • Family
This area is a good place to stay, if you're looking for budget accommodation and at the same time looking to be close to some good shopping and sightseeing locations. The place is also close to two metro stations, making it easier to commute to more distant areas.

i love this place
Nov 2019
Paharganj in new Delhi is a very very busy place as the New Delhi railway station is found there. you get foods everywhere near the railway station and there are many hotels in the neighbourhood. i went to drink fresh juice everyday in the main market near the railway station. it is a very big and busy tourist place. you can money changers and tourist shop along the main market. Every year when i go to Delhi i go for some shopping at paharganj.
