Eat, Drink and Shop at Paharganj

 

Right in front of the Delhi Railway Station is a stretch of street called the Paharganj Main Market—an assorted medley of budget hotels, souvenir shops and hole-in-the-wall eating joints. Mainly frequented by backpackers from around the world, Paharganj is the perfect place to shop everything – from curios to brightly coloured harem pants and leather bags. When you’re done shopping, stop by for a cheap drink at My Bar; sample some schnitzel and hummus at Diamond Café or try authentic soju at The Shim Tur Korean Café.

#MMTProTip: If you’re looking for something more meaningful, you can take a walking tour of the area, organized by former street kids, in association with the Salaam Balak Trust.
