| Two Questions about Delhi If on the Indian Railways website it says your train is leaving from Delhi Station rather than New Delhi does this mean its Old Delhi Station... Which is good bookshop for buddhist books near the centre of Delhi.... Thanks, Michael. |

| Hi Delhi has three railway stations. If your ticket/website says 'Delhi' or "DLI' its refering to Old Delhi Rlwy Station. Check this link for more details - Delhi train stations confusion NDLS - New Delhi railway Station DLI - Old Delhi Railway Station NZM - Nizamudding Railway Station

| Oxford book shop at Statesman house is also a good book shop, so is the one near Depauls on Janpath market (Sory no name !) But the best place is Bahrisons at Khan Market.

| Best for religious/esoteric books is Piccadilly Book Stall 64, Shanker Market, Connaught Circus New Delhi - 11001 Phone: 23313993 Driving direction: the shop is in M-Block of Connaught Circus. You could also visit the Publishers Motilal Banarsidass http://www.mlbd.com and Munshiram Manoharlal http://www.mrmlonline.com/ but most likely Piccadilly will have all of their books right in one place. |
