Old Dehradun
It might not be on a bucket list of many travellers to Dehradun, but it is indeed a great place to visit. One can buy many local products.

Very crowded, nothing great
It is just a very crowded market and I repented venturing in. Too much traffic. Nothing great about the market. Just some shops selling garments sourced from Delhi and Ludhiana.
