Quetta dry Fruits shop in front of Clock Tower is an excellent place to visit for dry fruits. They also sell dry fruits in bulk to others in their neighborhiod. In fact Quetta dry fruits are whole seller dealer.
Historic place. Traffic is a mess. If u r planning a quick.shopping trip. Plan at 1100 hrs in morning. Shops will be open with v few costumers.
The place is a historical one, so its always a good feeling to visit this place. But there is a lot of mismanagement from municipal corporation, no proper parking area, no traffic management, and also the roads are covered by the encroachments of the shopkeepers.

Nice place but very difficult to visit for a stranger bcz it has eight bazar just like same each other
The tower has historic significance and appears to be well maintained. The surrounding bazaar, though, is pretty noisy and congested. The one-way traffic on the lanes in the bazar help, though. There isnt sufficient parking, so people park their cars on the road.The good thing about ther bazar is that you find just about anything here. You just have to know where to look, or how to ask.
