Patch of green, splash of royalty! Lodhi Gardens

Patch of green, splash of royalty! Lodhi Gardens,

“Fantastic picnic spot”, was the way she’d described it. Beautiful lawns, flowering plants, walkers’ trail,

water channel, even a bonsai park! Suddenly the world outside had been eclipsed out. The honking

vehicles of central Delhi had been unbelievably masked by the chirping of birds. People walking their

dogs. Families relaxing on the lawns. An instructor training people in physical exercise. Photographers

scouting for good views. Joggers running past with ipods stuck firmly in ears. How ignorant I felt at not

having heard of this happening place before!

The gardens around these historic tombs were landscaped in the early 20th century by Lady Willingdon,

wife of the then Governor-General of British India, the Marquess of Willingdon. When inaugurated in

1936, the park was named ‘Lady Willingdon Park’, but after independence the name was changed to

‘Lodi Gardens’

The path that veers left from the Lodi Road entrance leads to the oldest of the tombs in the enclosure-

that of Muhammad Shah, the last Sayyed ruler of Hindustan, who was interred here in 1444. This tomb is

visible from the road, and is a beautiful eight sided monument, with three arches piercing each side.

Inside are eight tombs, mostly unknown….the central one is believed to be that of the emperor.

Towards the center of the park are the twin monuments of Bada Gumbad (Big Dome) and Sheesh

Gumbad (Glass Dome). Both of these are Lodi period monuments. The Bada Gumbad is built on a raised

plinth with what looks like a ruined grave platform in the center. On one side is a three-domed mosque,

intricately carved with plaster decorations. Beautiful jharokhas (windows) project out of its sides. On the

same platform is the actual ‘big dome’ which lends the structure its name- there is much debate among

historians whether this is a mausoleum or just a grand gatehouse leading to the mosque.

This little mosque really completes the picture of the Lodi Gardens, an abode of peace and serenity, and

a wonderful living specimen of the rich history and heritage of Delhi.

Hauz  Khas village for weekend getaways

Hauz  Khas village for weekend getaways 

The history of Hauz-Khas village is traced back to 13th century of Delhi Sultanate reign of Allauddin Khilji

Dynasty. The name Hauz Khas is derived from the Urdu word 'Hauz' meaning water tank or lake and

'Khas', meaning royal. The Royal Tank.

This large reservoir was built by Khilji to supply water to the inhabitants of Siri, the second medieval city

of the Delhi Sultanate.

Several buildings, like Madrasa, Mosque and Tomb were built overlooking this lake. These haunting yet

alluring ruins add to the beauty and the serenity of this place.

As the day proceeded, with the Sun God smiling a little the place became lively,  abuzz with

activity, with people, mostly youngsters.

Hauz-Khas village boasts of quite a few famous art galleries in those nondescript buildings. While some

of these fascinating galleries showcase the art works of big names like MF Hussain, others specialize in

showcasing the art works done by young contemporary Indian artists. While serious buyers can pick up

his choice of art work, others can simply enjoy viewing these galleries spending some time.

Hauz-Khas village can be termed as hub of designers and collectors.

This market with its location and ancient architectural backdrops, definitely offers a wonderful unique

experience which is not found in any of the other Delhi markets.

Adjacent to the village is a sprawling park, the Deer Park.

The Deer Park in Hauz-Khas Village is such a delight for a nature lover who loves to explore the well

maintained lawns and trees. Surrounded by greenery, its just the place to spend a day out, away from

the hustle and bustle of a daily city life.

The park has nicely trimmed sprawling lawns with smooth bed of grass that is dotted with trees. This

lush green serene surroundings attract many morning walkers. The Deer Park along with the adjacent

Rose Garden and District Park, constitute one of the largest green regions of New Delhi known as 'the

lung of Delhi'.

No matter what, Hauz-Khas Village seems to be the funkiest place in the Capital to shop, eat, unwind or

simply enjoy taking in the vibe.

India Gate

At the centre of New Delhi stands the 42 m high India Gate, an "Arc-de-Triomphe" like archway in

coloured lights. India Gate stands at one end of Rajpath, and the area surrounding it is generally

Surrounding the imposing structure is a large expanse of lush green lawns, which is a popular picnic

spot. One can see hoards of people moving about the brightly lit area and on the lawns on summer
