Shopping
in Bhopal - The charm of shopping in Bhopal is in strolling down the
streets and lanes of the old city with old havelis and revered mosques
and glancing at the wares and paraphernalia that hawkers have laid out.
The two main shopping areas in Bhopal are the New Market in TT Nagar
and the Chowk in the old city. The MP government's
Mrignayani
emporium and the handicrafts emporium are the quintessential handicraft
showrooms to pick up souvenirs, keepsakes and cute knick knacks. Other
important products here are raw silk fabric and clothing, tussar and
Chanderi silk. The
Women's Co-op Zari Center, Pir Gate, is
another handicraft center that sells products intricately embellished by
fine zari work and dazzling chiffon saris. Other important produce is
the fine tussar silks, trademark of Bhopal.
