Khari Baoli, Spice market in Old Delhi, India
Khari Baoli spreads through narrow lanes filled with hundreds of shops selling spices, dried fruits, nuts, herbs, and tea leaves in large quantities.
The market originated in 1551 near a stepwell during the reign of Islam Shah, with significant expansion during the Mughal period under Shah Jahan's rule.
Generations of merchant families maintain traditional trading practices in this market, operating from the same numbered shops their ancestors established centuries ago.
Early morning visits between 8 AM and 10 AM provide the best opportunity to observe fresh spice deliveries and avoid the intense midday crowds.
The Gadodia Market building from the 1920s contains multiple floors of spice sellers, creating a concentrated display of Indian seasonings and aromatics.
