Visited with a buddy recently and it is a real eye opener. The Bazaar consists of a few narrow streets where there are loads of car parts, hardware, tools and construction materials, lots of which which come from ''dubious'' backgrounds! the highlight to us was the auto recycling business that goes on at several different street side locations.

After a nice lunch, nosy your way through this market. Try not to have an agenda - it probably won't be met. This is a great place to stumble onto something that speaks to you. I had no intentions of buying anything, but when I saw the a couple of window AND a buddha at the right prices, I bought.... More

I love this bazaar, so much so I went back the day after for more. It is huge and has everything from clothes, jewellery and bangles to linens and trinkets to car horns, spare parts, old furniture and treasured vintage pieces. Don't miss the vintage furniture lanes which sell huge lamps and light fittings from ships. There's a brilliant stall... More

Shopping in Mumbai is a memorable experience as one wanders through its bazaars with charming names like Chor Bazar, Mutton Street and Zaveri Bazar. Chor Bazaar is believed to have the original name Shor Bazaar or the Noisy Market, that aptly described the yelling and shouting of the local traders on Mutton Street while selling their second hand house hold...

If you're looking for antiques this is the spot! We went to visit out of curiousity. Needless to say we were not looking for any grandfather clocks, old chocolate tins, ornate statues, mini perfume bottles or any such random items - but if ever we were, this is where we'd go! An entertaining walk that should take you no longer... More

It was scary there with all cars and bikes sqweezing between crowds of people on narrow streets. I was happy to get out of that district and feel safe again
