- Chhatta_Chowk abstract "The Chhatta Chowk is a long passage way that contains a bazaar, or market. The Chhatta Chowk is located in India, in the Red Fort district of Delhi.The Chhatta Chowk is located behind the Lahori Gate and is set within an arched passage. It is lined with two-story flats that contain 32 arched bays serving as shops. During Shah Jahan's reign, the Chhatta Chowk was very exclusive, specializing in trading goods such as silk, brocades, velvet, gold, silverware, jewelry, gems and precious stones, catering to the luxurious tastes of imperial households.Chhatta Chowk translated into British English means, "covered bazaar". The Chhatta Chowk's history dates back to the 17th century. It is a unique example of Mughal architecture in which bazaars were typically open-air. As such, The Chhatta Chowk Bazaar was formerly known as Bazaar-i-Musaqaf, with a saqaf, meaning "roof". It was inspired by another marketplace which Shah Jahan had seen in Peshawar in 1646.The arches were walled up in the 20th century and the passage thus lost its original appearance. The ceiling was also originally painted in colours. There are plans to restore the bazaar.".
