OMG.. I want to buy everything. LITERALLY everything…
The clothes, the scarves, the statues, the bedspreads, hell I don’t even wear jewellery but I want it all!!
And that’s just in the main bazaar at Paharganj!! From what I’ve heard there are districts dedicated just to textiles here!! Uh Oh… I think we will be spending a small fortune here..
We can totally justify buying 5 different quilts and bedspreads right??

The only saving grace? Well the clothes they sell here, are directed to the foreign tourist market, and are not exactly appropriate for conservative India. So for now, I’ll save my rupees and instead dream of the entire new wardrobe I’ll shout myself before we leave!!
Oh, and it’s not just the tourists who shop here either. It’s sooo busy here! It’s a crazy mixture of tourists, locals, touts, beggars, dogs, cows and vehicles all trying to make the loudest sound as if the traffic in front of them will magically part if they succeed.
Delhi is dusty, dirty, hot, stinky, sticky, architecturally diverse, ram-shackled and beautiful all rolled into one.
