Connaught
Place
or
'CP'
as
it
is
more
commonly
known
is
a
massive
commercial
and
financial
centre
in
New
Delhi.
Named
after
the
Duke
of
Connaught
and
Strathearn,
this
confusing
market
complex
houses
almost
all
famous
international
chain
stores,
famous
food
chains,
restaurants
and
bars.
Connaught
Place
has
one
of
the
largest
national
flags
in
the
country.
This
circular,
greying
whitewashed
structure
has
two
concentric
circles;
the
inner
circle
which
has
blocks
A
to
F
and
the
outer
circle
which
has
blocks
G
to
N.
The
Connaught
Place
is
also
the
ultimate
place
to
experience
the
vibrant
nightlife
of
Delhi
housing
some
of
the
most
famous
bars
and
restaurants.
Being
one
of
the
most
popular
after
dark
destinations,
no
visit
to
Delhi
is
complete
without
a
visit
to
the
Connaught
Place.
Connaught
Place
has
some
of
the
best
colonial
buildings
in
the
city.
Always
bustling
with
people,
it
is
dotted
with
Contemporary
art
galleries,
antique
theatres
like
Regal
Cinema
and
toy
stores.
Delhi's
first
ice
cream
parlour,
first
toy
store
and
first
art
gallery
were
all
opened
at
this
place.
It
is
the
ninth
most
expensive
office
market,
costlier
than
Dubai,
downtown
Boston
and
Shanghai.
Be
it
Indian
or
western
fashion,
khadi
garments,
accessories
or
various
Indian
handicrafts;
one
can
get
everything
here.
Connaught
Place
or
CP
is
also
a
favourite
among
the
city's
party
people.
The
nightlife
here
is
lively
with
a
myriad
choice
of
some
of
the
bars,
pubs,
sports
bar,
lounges,
cafes
and
restaurants.
Whether
you
are
from
Delhi
or
just
visiting,
you
can
dance
the
night
away
in
one
of
the
swanky
nightclubs
here.
Connaught
Place
is
a
major
shopping
and
entertainment
centre
apart
from
being
a
place
to
experience
the
diverse
culture
of
the
city.
