Find flavours of true India at DLF, Sushant Lok
For every Gurgaonite with an Indian heart, Sushant Lok is the place in. It is often said that you can take a person out of India, but you cannot take India out of a person. Between DLF and Sushant Lok, it is the latter that caters to the crowd that believes in owning not only a house but also a patch of land. If DLF catches the eyes of people who find apartment or Condo style living comfortable, then Sushant Lok is the story of India & Bharat.
DLF with its glitzy malls and world class commercial and residential complexes is often seen as too commercial. Sushant Lok on the other hand has managed to resist the temptation and created a unique position for itself. It has much lower costs than its illustrious neighbour and makes great commercial sense. And who says, that living here makes experiencing the other side any difficult.
The colony has a calm & soothing environment with   independent houses, green lawns, streets lined with trees, colourful flowers remind you of the old world charm. But the moment you hit one of Sushant Lok markets, there is a transition into a busy Indian Bazaar, with its usual quota of buzz, activities and at times chaos.
 Vyapar Kendra is a busy market that caters not only to Sushant Lok but DLF residents as well. If the one drawback, lack of proper parking space is ignored, it is the best place for shopping. During peak hours, the road next to Vyapar Kendra remains crowded and a Mother Dairy booth next to Vyapar Kendra adds to the chaos.
Notwithstanding the drawback, there is a certain character to this market. Everything that a household needs is available here.  From fresh vegetables and groceries to Mithai ki dukan, uniform shops to book depots, all are here and there is no need for one to rush to old Gurgaon or Delhi.
Another thing about Sushant Lok is that you can get the desi khana here. The long-forgotten breakfast of aloo-puri, kachori and lassi is available at the famous Shyam Sweets. Dabbas with great tasting Punjabi dishes and Tandoori rotis for takeaways are another attraction.
Also, there are high-end hotels and eating joints in Sushant Lok like The Kebab Factory, the delightful buffets at Radisson suites, great meals at Dynasty, Pizza Hut and Red Hot Café, the Thai restaurant.
During festivals Sushant Lok has a Mela like atmosphere. Come Durga Puja & Dussehra Sushant Lok will be the place to be in. Vyapar Kendra provides everything needed for any festival or ritual. From banana leaves to bandhanwar to colourful Rakhis, all are easily available here.
