Delhi - Tibetan market and Main market.



Often called the Little Tibet in Delhi, this colony was originally set up to house a few Tibetan refugees. Decades later, not only has the little colony market grown in size but its name and fame have also spread far and wide. It is popularly known as the Monastery Market.

A nondescript gate under the arch of the ISBT Shahdara Link Flyover on the Ring Road leads one to a suprisingly large market, chock-a-block with stalls selling statues, incense, shawls, paintings and Tibetan artefacts, including jewellery and semi-precious stones. Shops selling clothes and accessories are a huge hit among the young crowd of Delhi.










Paharganj is a neighbourhood of Central Delhi, located just west of the New Delhi Railway Station. Known as Shahganj or King's ganj or market place during Mughal era, it is one of the three administrative subdivisions, of the Central Delhi district, of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, with the other two being, Darya Ganj and Karol Bagh.
Known for its concentration of affordable hotels, lodges, restaurants, dhabas and a wide variety of shops catering to both domestic travellers and foreign tourists, especially backpackers and low-budget travellers; and over the years it has become particularly popular as a haunt for international cuisine.





Jyoti Mahal   located in New Delhi is an enchanting hotel, combines old World charm with modern benefits in comfort.

Ideally located in Pahar Ganj, Jyoti Mahal is a place where you can relax. Picturesque bedrooms, all decorated in their individual character..

The Rajasthani architecture bestows character, the elegant furnishing conveys style.

The surroundings are so quiets you will think you are in private residence.

As a finishing touch, each room leads through to its own spacious bathroom lined with exquisite Indian white marble, complete designer toiletries.
