Connaught Place
Location:
Close to the New Delhi Railway Station, Central Delhi.
Built
by the British, Connaught Place is quite close to the New Delhi
railway station Delhi's most popular shopping centre offers almost
everything under the sun. It's old too, being in existence since
1931. The state emporia buildings are also located in this area so
are the head offices of major banks, airlines and other such places
of importance to the tourist. The complex, popularly referred to as
C.P. is an important meeting point for all sections of people and is
something which no tourist should miss.
For shopping, Connaught Place is treasure trove of Indian shops for
artifacts and wares. Built by the British, Connaught Place is quite
close to the New Delhi railway station and a unique shopping spot.
Palika Bazaar, another famous underground shopping center, is
located here.
Connaught Place has snack bars for quick stops, and plenty of
upmarket restaurants, as well as budget sit-down joints that attract
a largely Western clientele. Even if you can't afford a meal in an
expensive restaurant, it's worth going into air-conditioned comfort
and treating yourself to silver-service tea, filter coffee, or a
cool milk shake. For patties, sandwiches and take-out meat and veg
dishes, head behind the market at the top of Janpath, where you'll
find great snacks at incredibly good value. Several familiar
fast-food joints are represented in C.P and elsewhere in Delhi and
there is a new TGIF . C.P's larger restaurants remain closed on
Sunday mornings.
