Dariba Kalan : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dariba Kalan Dariba Kalan (Hindi: दरीबा कलान, English: ''Street of the Incomparable Pearl''), is a 17th-century street in Chandni Chowk area of Old Delhi or Shahjahanbad, and Asia's largest jewellery market. It lies within the walled city of Delhi, and connects the Chandni Chowk area with Jama Masjid.〔 ==History== It derives its name from the Persian ''Dur-e be-baha'', which translates as ''unparalleled pearl'',〔 while suffix Kalan means big. There was also a smaller street near by, known as Dariba Khurd or Chhota Dariba, both mean small, now it is known as Kinari Bazaar.〔 This is in reference to its history as a popular market for precious stones and gold and silver jewelry, especially under the reign of the 17th-century Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. The street witnessed the bloody massacre of Delhi in March 1739, ordered by the Persian invader Nadir Shah, when hundreds of innocent civilians and soldiers were killed and the gold shops were looted.
