Jhanda Chowk/Sarrafa Bazaar

This is Meerut's famous Sarrafa Bazaar, where hundreds of shops and showrooms line the narrow lanes, renowned across the country for crafting exquisite gold and silver jewellery. Around 50,000 artisans from all over the nation work in these lanes, turning precious metals into beautiful creations for jewellery traders. In the heart of this industry, in the old city, lies the iconic Jhanda Chowk. True to its name, this square becomes a focal point during major national events like Republic Day and Independence Day, when the national flag is proudly hoisted in the presence of local residents and distinguished guests.
