Shopping in New Delhi

New Delhi has thousands of shops and shopping opportunities. Shopping is a fun attraction, but it can be a really hard experience if you are not sure of what you want and where you want to go. Browsing stores in New Delhi can take forever and it’s not recommended. It has been a problem for most travellers, because of the huge variety of shops and opportunities.

However, some brilliant people have come up with a great idea and the shopping assistant services have been created. Individuals or companies offer services providing exciting shopping tours. You start at a given time when a shopping assistant comes to your hotel to take you the numerous shops New Delhi has to offer. Depending on what you fancy, you can choose between the Bazzar, huge shopping malls or local traders.

Items such as silk fabrics, locally made carpets and unique jewellery, are all magnificent symbols of this colourful city. Not to mention the incredible traditional clothes, featuring lively colours and soft fabrics so typical of India.
New Delhi is famous for its jewellery shops. During Indians festival period last year, over 60 tons of gold were sold. The local production of gold is way cheaper than the imported one, but you have to watch for scams. Don’t get blinded by the affordable prices and make sure what you are buying is of a high quality, if all else fails you can try your hand at golden bingo and have some more shopping money to lay with!

Other than that, shopping in New Delhi can be a really exciting and fun experience. Shopping assistants will help you avoid false goods and will take you to the best markets. Once satisfied, you will be brought back to your hotel.

The most famous shopping Mall in New Delhi is known to be the Metro Walk Mall. Filled with locals and tourists alike, this place boasts numerous international brands, as well as traditionally Indian merchandise. After a long shopping session, you can have an Indian dinner at one of the restaurants here or, if you miss the old junk food, burgers and soda are just around the corner!

Shopping is fun for most us! But we have to admit it has its drawbacks. If you want to do some quality shopping without wasting your time and energy on endless shopping sessions, you can always use your Myntra coupons and get all your goods delivered at your hotel. You can even find great discounts and save some money for other pleasures and attractions.
