There was a time when the only shopping options in Kolkata were under the hot sun. Like the name points out, AC Market changed all that. The large market space has a small door as its entrance, and then corridors lined with shops of every kind. You can find just about anything here: western and traditional apparel, electronic goods, jewelery, watches, souvenirs and even wigs! The three-tiered market might not look the part but it happens to be a great place for bargains. Of course, New Market is the bargain capital of the city, but this is almost just as good and air-conditioned! With the introduction of malls like Forum, South City and Mani Square, AC Market did suffer a considerable setback. However, during Puja season (read massive shopping sprees), AC Market continues to be a favorite among many. A small beverage stand right in the middle of the ground floor is great for breaks between shopping.
