Delhi’s Khari Baoli is Asia’s largest spice market, and its journey to this fame has been a long yet an interesting one. It came into being during the 17th century, dating back to the Mughal era. Baoli, literally means a step well, and ‘Khari’ or ‘Khara’ translates to salty, thereby translating the meaning of Khari Baoli to a salty water step well.
