The Khazanchi haveli, like many others of Shahjahanabad, lies in ruins, its whitewashed archways covered with black dirt that routinely emanates from the small scale establishments in its vicinity. However, this takes away little from the mystique of this haveli that belonged to Emporer Shah Jahan's accountants and book-keepers and was used to stash away its money, in those days, coins and mohurs. Since the haveli had to be close to the Red Fort (and is fabled to have been connected to the Red Fort through an underground tunnel), it happens to be close to the entrance of Chandni Chowk. Walk down from the Red Fort towards Fatehpuri, take a left on the road that goes to Dariba. The haveli lies at the end of the road that connects Dariba and Esplanade Road.
