Paharganj Delhi Main Bazaar - Heaven or hell?

The Main Bazaar in Paharganj is by some Delhiites considered hell due to it's reputation for drugs and shady characters. But as my good Indian friend told me "you can find these things everywhere in Delhi - they are just more obvious in the Main Bazaar". However, unlike many capital cities, Delhi actually feels pretty safe to me. This might be an illusion of course, but I like Delhi a lot and I also like the Main Bazaar. I have stayed there three times now and feel both comfortable there and quite at home. It is also the cheapest place to stay in Delhi and has lots of cheap restaurants, travel agencies and shops. This video gives you a small idea about the character of the Main Bazaar - heaven or hell? Judge for yourself.

@LivveHult I was there last summer before the government tore the front 5 feet off of the buildings on many of the streets to expand the roads for the commonwealth games. it looked like bombs had gone off. Some people defended the government saying that people had expanded their buildings forward into the road over the years. Obviously I'm not in a position to judge as an outsider but it looked horrible.
