South Extension " Incredible Delhi"


South extension which is locally known as “South Ex” by the Delhites is situated on the Ring Road and falls on the eastern side of AIIMS. Surrounded by the rural locations of Kotla Mubarakpur, South Extension makes a great contrast with its urbanity. Internally it is divided into South Extension I and South Extension II. There is just 45 minutes run from the Nizzammudin Railway Station and 1hr run from the New Delhi Railway Station to reach South Extension. While it takes only half an hour to reach South Extension from Sarai Kale Khan ISBT. The Sprawling boundaries of South Extension engulf the major hot spots like Sarojini Nagar, Netaji Nagar, Khel Gaon and Defence Colony.
One can get bunches of private institutions in almost every lane of South Extension. This is the reason which facilitates the movements of student`s crowd in this area. Some of the famous mass communication colleges and tech institutions add the educational arena to the place.
Being the most posh market, the South Extension market place offers international shopping experience and it is a dream paradise for the shoppers. The hub of tourists is commonly seen in and around these markets. The markets remain closed on Monday and are the busiest on Sunday. The collection of the finest high-priced designer apparels is commendable here. Besides a plethora of music stores and clothing, many well known brands have their outlets in South Extension. Being frequently visited by the rich yuppies and delhi’s cash-flush teenagers, the market has almost all the top international brands. Benetton, Tommy Hilfiger, Nalli Saris, Tanishq, BG’s, Mehrasons Jewelry Store are few of the brands to name which have major outlets here. The huge departmental stores like Ebony, Big Jos and Hopps add on the spice to the happening market.
But the list does not end here…if you are bored of the big brands and shopping complexes then you can taste the exotic confectionaries and even can have the mouthwatering bhel-puris and golgappas which add the Indian flavor at the numerous stalls. But if you have got a rapturous mood and want to tango then this area has some exquisite restro-bars, clubs and discotheques to tingle your limbs and make you dance all night long.
The ambience of the place makes it adorable and the perfect blend of western as well as eastern culture makes the place worth visiting.
