Krishna Nagar, Delhi

Krishna Nagar, Delhi is an urban ward situated in the East Delhi district of Delhi in the Trans-Yamuna area.[1][2] It is surrounded by Vishwas Nagar, Gandhi Nagar, Preet Vihar & Geeta Colony areas.[3]

The main areas under this Delhi Assembly constituency include the Ghondli Vill, Lal Quarter Market, Old Anarkali, Jagatpuri, Ram Nagar, Ram Nagar Extension, East Krishna Nagar, Krishna Nagar Blocks A through J, Arjun Nagar, Old Arjun Nagar, Kanti Nagar, Radhey Puri, Rashid Market, Chander Nagar, New Layal Pur and New Layal Pur Extn., West Azad Nagar and Khureji Khas.

Lal Quarter market is the main attraction of Krishna Nagar. Lal Quarter market is East Delhi’s reply to all the popular, budget-friendly street markets in the other parts of Delhi. It's got Lajpat-style kitschy jewelry, Kurtis and dupattas, Sarojini-style style daily wear, saris the likes of Chandni Chowk, and plenty of street shops for bags, accessories, and footwear. Bonus: all of it is available at incredibly cheap prices. The market is pretty huge, and not the most organized. To reach the place, we'd suggest not taking a car and taking the metro. The nearest ones are Welcome (red line) and Preet Vihar. (blue line). From there, you'll have to catch a rickshaw/auto.
