Lodhi Garden-Lodhi Road | New Delhi, DL

Join us for a heritage walk through Lodhi Garden—Delhi’s most picturesque blend of history, architecture, and nature. Hidden beneath flowering trees and winding pathways lie the silent tombs and mosques of the Sayyid and Lodhi dynasties, rulers of Delhi before the rise of the Mughals. This walk invites you to experience the lost medieval kingdom of the 15th century, while also discovering how Lodhi Garden evolved—from a royal necropolis to a colonial park to today’s public oasis.
Highlights: - The Tomb of Sikandar Lodi — a rare octagonal masterpiece - The majestic Bara Gumbad - The Shish Gumbad - The transformation from 'Lady Willingdon Park' to Lodhi Garden - Fascinating tales of dynasties, decay, and revival - Aesthetic spots for reflection and photography
