• Connaught Place is one of the largest financial, commercial and business centres in New Delhi, India. It is often abbreviated as CP and houses
the headquarters of several noted Indian firms.
• The architecture of CP is inspired from the Royal Crescent in Bath with the only difference being that the latter is semi-circular and three-
storied.
• While CP is one of the busiest commercial streets of India, it is also a shopper’s paradise. There are hundreds of shops in the entire area. It
also boasts of India’s first underground and air-conditioned market, Palika Bazaar.
• The location surely has a tinge of grandeur, with the costs too matching up to it. CP is one of the most expensive commercial markets not only
across India but also the world.
