Sitabuldi is the commercial heart of Nagpur, a busy market area at the foot of the historic Sitabuldi Fort, where a famous battle was fought in 1817. Its main street is lined with clothes shops, electronics stores, restaurants and snack stalls, and it is one of the most crowded and colourful places in the city. Sitabuldi is also the interchange of the Nagpur Metro’s two lines, which makes it the easiest place in the city to reach from almost anywhere. For Myra members, that convenience makes it a fair meeting point when two people live in different parts of Nagpur. Introductions here often include people from Dhantoli, Ramdaspeth, Mahal, Congress Nagar and Sadar. A first date might begin with a short browse through the market and continue in one of the cafés nearby, where it is quieter. Because the market is so busy, it is worth agreeing on a precise meeting point, such as a Metro exit or a well-known shop. Many members also enjoy the area’s old snack shops, some of which have served the same recipes for decades, and the evening energy here is a big part of Nagpur life. If you prefer calm, the gardens of Ramdaspeth are only a few minutes away.
Where to meet in Sitabuldi
Sitabuldi main road market
Shops and stalls packed along a lively street. Fun to browse together, though busy in the evening.
Sitabuldi Fort
A historic fort on a hill above the market. It is a military area and open to the public only on certain national holidays, so check before you plan a visit.
Ramdaspeth cafés

Old snack shops
Long-established shops serving samosas, kachoris and sweets, a quick and inexpensive treat.
Getting around
Sitabuldi is the interchange station of the Nagpur Metro’s Orange and Aqua lines. The railway station is close by, and autos are plentiful. Driving and parking in the market are difficult, so the Metro is the best option.
Good to know
- The market is very crowded. Keep your phone and wallet secure and meet at a named Metro exit.
- Side lanes empty out after shops close. Walk back along the main road or take the Metro.
