Answer:
Visit to A Market Place
A market is the open area or building where people meet to buy and sell goods. Different goods are available for purchase in a market. Numerous markets are available in a particular city. Different kinds of goods are sold in markets. Most of the markets are placed close to residential areas for the convenience of the customers.
I had heard a lot about the oldest and busiest market called ‘Chandni Chowk’ in Old Delhi now in Central North Delhi. I had never seen it. A few days before my brother’s marriage, when my mother was going for shopping, I insisted to accompany her. However, she tried her best to discourage me from coming but I requested hard. She even told me that there would be too much crowd and a child like me may be very tired. However, I still insisted.
We started on our journey. After about two hours on the road, we reached the famous Chandni Chowk. I had heard that it was the biggest and oldest market of Delhi. I saw hundreds of men rushing up and down everywhere. It appeared as if they were hurrying for an important mission. The sight of the crowd frightened me. I started questioning myself why I chose to come here. As we proceeded towards the shops, I was impressed. Different items were kept for sale and all the shops were too crowded.
Walking through the crowd, first we went to suiting and shirting shops where we had to make bulk purchases for my brother and gifting to friends and relatives. Each shop was crowded with customers. I was confused to see huge stocks of suiting and shirting piled up in each of these shops. In every shop, salespersons were busy with the customers. While shopping in one of the shops we got some relief from the pushing on the crowded lanes.
I was once again a bit fresh and now we were looking for a good jewellery shop. I was surprised to see so many jewellery shops. I had never imagined that expensive gold items could be available in so many shops. In these lanes, we spent nearly two hours glancing into one shop to another and making selections of different gold ornaments. Seeing the fast movement of the customers in and out of the shops, my mother said that these days the sale was more than usual because of the marriage season. Moreover, the festival season was also round the corner.
After having bought several bags of clothes, jewellery and other important things, we finally stepped out from the shop. Believe me, we were almost lost in those jammed lanes and by-lanes. Finally, we had to ask someone to guide us to the main road.
Such a visit was my first experience. I was impressed to see the shops full of items and different markets for different things. Although it was a tiring day, our shopping was wonderful. This was my most interesting visit to a market.
