With temperatures around 45 degrees, we braved the scorching heat to have rounds of Lutyens Delhi and old Delhi.
We passed same roads again and again due to traffic controls on account of Chinese Premier here. The roads are laden with Amaltas Trees lined on either side with yellow rain flowers at its peak. We finally reached Chandni Chowk and enjoyed everything including a old time walk in the Bazar and books shops on Nai Sarhak.
There is a beauty mix of old and modern eateries when American fast food giant McDonald also pops up its head in the street. The Bazar is as usual filled up with low and middle income group of people who throng here in a parade like Atmosphere.
The shops deep inside have thrown their sales man in the street to fetch new customers and some times it reaches to disgusting situation as they continue to cling on to you. For ladies, watch carefully, it is open ground for groping and molesting is hardly challenged and pursued. The pickpockets are very common.
Our driver Sunil from Bihar was really excited to visit the Bazar for the very first time in his life and liked the shops filled up with so many good things at same place.
The trip ended with a sumptuous lunch in 'Paronthe Wali Gali' with Methi, Gobhi and Mooli Paronthas and matching veg dishes of Petha, Aloo and raw pickle. The Rabrhi,served as a finale, was awesome.
