Directions
Walk a short distance past the Shelton Hotel at 5043 Main Bazaar, and you'll come across shops selling books and music. There's also another great book store called Pilgrims Book House at 1625 Raj Guru Road (the road that leads right off the Main Bazaar to the Imperial Cinema).
What You'll Find
These shops are stacked with a huge variety of books, including travel books such as those by Lonely Planet, Indian fiction and non-fiction, cultural books, and contemporary novels. Quite a few books are in languages other than English.
You'll also find lots of traditional and classical Indian music CDs, and relaxation and meditation CDs. There are some attractive postcards too.
How Much it Costs
Prices for books range from between $3 to $10, and you can get some enticing discounts if you buy from the second hand stock. CDs cost from around $6 to $8 each.
