This is one of the oldest market in Kolkata, spending nice a few hours here. All in one market you need is in here, from garments to homemade cottage cheese (paneer) almost everything you can find here in this market. If you looking for garments you can go to "Shreeram Arcade" and you can go to famous restaurant too "Aminia" best mutton curry & briyani. Forget to take a pic before, but i will put our messy plate picture after we eat 😋😋😋
The market is open Monday to Friday from 10 AM until 8 PM, on Saturday from 10 AM until 7 PM and closed on Sundays.

Here is i put a little history about this market :

In the 1850s, as British colonies slowly and gradually became the order of the day, a majority of the Britishers overtly started displaying their disdain to brush shoulders with “natives” at marketplaces. Moved by a choreographed cry by the English residents, the then Calcutta Corporation, in 1871, contemplated developing a market to exclusively serve Calcutta’s British Sahibs. The New Market was thrown open to the British inhabitants on January 1, 1874, where the blue-blooded and affluent Englishmen shopped at brand stores like Thacker Spink – famed book-dealers and stationers – Cuthbertson and Harper – shoe-merchants – Rankin and Company – exclusive dressmakers – and retailer R.W. Newman.
