    Stock up on books

    Posted by PhilSen 9 January 2006

    You’ll see hawkers and street stalls everywhere, flogging not just shawls, ornaments, trinkets and other tourist junk but reading material. In fact, both Penguin and Oxford University Press have indigenous operations here and you can often find brand new and reasonably good quality English paperbacks - not only India-related tomes but the latest Booker winners, and many classics of wider interest - at a fraction of what they’d cost you back home.

    Keep an eye out in the bookshops around Connaught Place and Khan Market and you may save quite a bit of money
