Asia’s largest wholesale spice market, Khari Baoli is located at the west end of Chandni Chowk. It’s a veritable world of spices, dried fruits, nuts, aam paapad and even the most exotic spices and condiments you probably wouldn’t find anywhere else, at affordable rates. Plus, most of the shops here are almost centuries old and the owners would have a lot of interesting tidbits to share related to the spice trade and different spices.
If you have a sensitive nose, be sure to carry a mask or an extra scarf, because the smell of spices can get overwhelming.
