Work and fun at chandni chowk - Day1

Just when we stepped out of the metro station at chandni chowk and walked forward.. What I saw in this market in the first place was a sea of men rushing up and down everywhere on all the roads. It appeared as though all the people were just rushing to some very important mission to and fro on the roads and this sight of the crowd frightened me. As we crossed the narrow street and reached at the 'NATRAJ BHALLE WALA'  I saw how people were pushing each other just to place an order the food joint.I continued my walk, clicking pictures and observing different activities of the people, hearing all the honking and the small shopkeepers promoting their products by shouting '50 rupee mey lelo' and much more. After crossing the construction area which was taking place almost everywhere, the clogged dirty water, the garbage dumped in every single corner. 

 Then we reached the road which lead to the 'RED FORT' reaching there was not as easy task, we had to cross the road in running traffic, people pushing each other, cars and auto wala's  honking all the way. We clicked many pictures and selfies near the old, red, heritage monument ..

then we took a rickshaw ride, asking the rickshaw wala a few questions on our way to  KINARI BAZAAR, which is famous for all the lace and bead work, along with other items which are commonly used during the weddings..  As we entered this bazaar, struggling through the small, narrow road where the wires were handing from infinity making them appear like a criss cross scary web of a spider. where  all the rickshaw wala's had to cross their way anyhow, not caring about the people walking on the same road. That place was dingy and claustrophobic having the smell of sewage and urine all the way. We stopped at the shops to ask the shopkeepers a few questions and some of then just refused to answer !  But the other were helping us with full enthusiasm in our research work.

After hours of walking, we were tired and hungry, just then we went to the famous 'PARANTHE WALI GALI' And had lunch there..No wonder why it's so famous ! After a few more interview sessions we came out of the Gali's and saw 'THE FAMOUS JALLEBI WALA. We got some of it packed and headed back towards the metro station.. The first day at chandni chownk was really worth it. I hope the rest of the trips there will get more interesting. :D
