Amazing!
Family
If you want to experience the full force of Delhi’s atmosphere, no trip would be complete without a trip to Chandi Chowk. The place can feel insane and overwhelming at times, but the place is full of life and incredible gastronomy: an experience I will never forget! If you’re ever in Delhi, you must visit this fantastic market. It is the adventure of a lifetime.

A busy place in heart of Delhi.

A busy place in heart of Delhi. The walkway is good. From 9 am to 9pm only vehicles allowed there are e riksha. So it is relatively less crowded and less polluted. There are shops on both sides of the walkway.
Red fort and parathewali galli are close by.
We visited it on July, looks like not so good time to visit. Winters will be better here. But then it will be so crowded.

Tourist coming to Delhi, should spend some hours here
We visited Chandni Chowk several times in November 2021 to purchase bridal dresses. There are specialized specific markets called 'Galis' for most of the items you want to purchase. Both wholesale and retail business go together in a same Gali. Chandni Chowk is well connected with Delhi Metro. Car parking space are few and are always near full. One can not drive car here, as it is not allowed. Chandni Chowk after renovation is easy to walk and enjoy. Red stone is used on the roads which resemble stone used in Red Fort. You can use E-rickshaw to travel there. If we are in here, it is not possible to go back without the taste of Old Delhi. Every Gali or corner has shops, stalls and Khomchas selling local delicious foods. One should always try 3-4 types of items at separate shops. The taste will be there with you forever. Any tourist coming to Delhi, should spend some hours here. Several historical places are there nearby.

Great place for purchase
Couples
This place is a big bazaar hub for clothes of different types (especially for women). Also other stuffs were available for home needs at very cheap and reasonable price to high price. Good place to hang out for purchase. Red fort is at close proximity so can have a walk through.
