Tips
Go early before it gets crowded. Especially in summers if you want to avoid the harsh sun, reach before noon.
Take a big bag because you may not get carry-bags there.
Carry a water bottle because it's going to be really tiring.
Carry enough cash as the sellers might not have POS machines.
Beware of pickpockets.
The market opens only on Sundays, starting from as early as 8 AM. By noon, it might get a bit difficult to shop for books at this market because of the heat.
As fond as Daryaganj Book Market grew over the years to many readers' and book lovers' disappointment, the Daryaganj Book Market was shut down during August first week, 2019. Over half a century worth of memories and pages that changed lives, the Daryaganj Book Market had definitely served its purpose before becoming a "no-hawking zone". The Delhi High Court declared the Market shut as the line of vendors across the market impeded traffic and pedestrian movement. However, over weeks of squabble and conversations with the local vendors Daryaganj Book Market has decided to return.
Daryaganj Book Market shifted to Mahila Haat, which is situated opposite to the Broadway Hotel in Chandini Chowk. Mahila Haat aims to uphold and preserve the Daryaganj Book Market tradition by hosting a range of wide open-air hut-like stalls where visitors could book-surf at their own pace without any traffic nuisance. A former marriage hall and private function venue, Mahila Haat is the new Daryaganj Book Market.
How to Reach Mahila Haat

Daryaganj was a prominent must-visit for not just bibliophiles but history buffs as well.
