Why to visit Manek Chowk
It is the second-largest jewelry market in India and you can buy your gold and silver trinkets from here during the day. After 9.30 in the night, the place turns into a food paradise. Ahmedabad was designed and planned in such a way that this square was traditionally the city-center for trading precious metals and gems. Some of the old jewelry shops of the city still exist in Manek Chowk. Though the city has taken into its stride modern day shopping avenues like malls and showrooms, Manek Chowk remains the center of Old Ahmedabad and is a favorite among locals and tourists alike for shopping.
Special Tip
If you enjoy Pav Bhaji, the Mahalaxmi Pavbhaji Centre is a must-visit in the market
