Ganeshguri market

This market derives its name from the Ganesh temple located nearby and is an unmistakable landmark in Guwahati. Thanks to its proximity to the state capital Dispur, this place is considered to be the commercial centre point of the city along with Fancy Bazar. A bit congested due to the narrow by lanes and stalls that invade the footpaths, Ganeshguri is a hub for designer wear for occasions like weddings, pujas and bihu. Locals swear by the variety and diversity of fabric and design available in the market and once you land here, you know they are right!
Clothing is not the only parallel in Ganeshguri; you can hunt for crockery, footwear, household items, music stores, cosmetic items and decoration pieces in the different shopping complexes of the market. Home to a few very popular food joints, Ganeshguri specializes in Assamese food and other Indian delicacies. Apart from these, the presence of several bars and pubs make Ganeshguri a nightlife haven and the perfect place to unwind after a day full of shop–hopping. Don’t miss out on the bhoot jolokias (world’s hottest chili) that are easily available with the roadside vegetable vendors.
