Connaught Place  is a bulls-eye in the heart of Delhi. The inner circle is Rajiv Chowk and the outermost loop is Indira Chowk. The name Connaught obviously goes back to India’s colonial past. It was named for the first Duke of Connaught, Prince Arthur. Today it’s a popular hangout, has one of the busiest Metro stations in the city, contains a keyhole shaped park, and is surrounded by many corporate headquarters.  Careful though, it also has one of the highest concentrations of shysters and con men in the city.
