mainly built in the 1930's of British in style,this is mainly an area in the middle of a large roundabout.The buildings are made of archways and are good for sightseeing out if the sun!!.
Here you will find many shops and restaurants as well as travel agencies and banks...a good place as any for the tourist to eat,shop and exchange. Leave a Comment

Connaught Place, built in 1931, named after the Duke of Connaught, a member of the British royal family is one of Delhi's most popular shopping centres. There is nothing that one cannot buy here. It also has several eating-houses. The state emporia buildings are also located in this area so are the head offices of major banks, airlines and other such things of importance to the tourist. The complex, popularly referred to as CP, is an important meeting point for all sections of people and is something. Even tourist don't miss it for nothing else then for its architecture and the humdrum of everyday life. Leave a Comment Address: New DelhiDirections: Downtown.

Even if you’re not staying in Pahar Ganj (Main Bazaar), its well worth walking down here from New Delhi Station as you get a taste of Delhi life in just one street. Cows walk around and do what cows do, people rush around pushing carts of goods, rickshaws cycle down the road, tourists shop and wander around whilst the normal chaos of everyday Delhi going’s on continues.

This fella was tame (first photo shown) - he didn't chase you and he wasn't selling chess sets. But woe betide the person who pointed a camera at him and his snake, as his assistant suddenly turned up and started pestering you for money. Yup, hawkers in India have hundreds of novel methods for extracting money from tourists, ranging from pestering, goading, nuisance, skulduggery, forgery, paying taxi drivers to take them to shops instead of hotels and...
...well, I wouldn't want to be chased by his snake!!! Cobras are poisonous, especially when they haven't been paid.
As regards Indian electricals, everything they say is true. Just hope it works and the switch isn't wired up wrong. This picture was taken in my hotel behind the dressing room table. The English Prince Phillip on seeing some dodgy wiring in Scotland once commented it must have been done by an Indian. No offence meant to Indians, but this was not the only example - you'll have to wait until the Jaipur page for the best one. Leave a Comment
