Moti Bazaar is a famous and old bazaar located in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. It was founded by Moti Lal in 1911.

Only twenty-two shops existed at the bazaar prior to the creation of Pakistan in 1947. The number of these stores has now risen to 1200. At least 8,000 shoppers visit Moti Bazaar every day. Earlier this bazaar was reserved only for women but now men and youths are also seen roaming here.[1][2][3]

There is a mansion in the heart of the marketplace that serves as a school today. This residence was erected in 1883 and given the name Kanya Ashra in honour of Moti Lal's wife.[4]
