Chhatta Chowk, Red Fort - 300 Year Old Bazaar, in Delhi
From the archive record
Located within the Red Fort, the Chhatta Chowk is a long passage-way housing a bazaar (market), dating back to the 17th century. In existence since the reign of Shah Jahan, the Chhatta Chowk is set within an arched passage and is lined with two-story flats containing 32 arched bays serving as shops. Chhatta Chowk, also known as Meena Bazaar, was formerly known as Bazaar-i-Mussaqaf under Shah Jahan. Constructed over 300 years ago, the Chhatta Chowk was very exclusive during Shah Jahan's reign, specializing in trading goods such as silk, brocades, velvet, gold, silverware, jewellery, gems and precious stones, and catering to the luxurious tastes of imperial households. It is a unique example of Mughal architecture in which bazaars were typically open-air. (Wikipedia) This covered bazaar lead
