Chandni chowk is the architectural art of the Mughal empire Shah Jahan’s daughter Jahan Ara, who designed the Chandni chowk in 17th century. It is one of the India’s most bust markets in Delhi. The name means a place of moonlight and the market got its name due to the moon light reflection which used to hit the water in a pool present in the center of the market and the canals into which the whole market was divided but now the pool doesn’t exist.
