A park in Delhi’s heart, Lodi Garden has something to offer for everyone: it has a cluster of medieval structures, a bonsai park, a lake with ducks & aquatic birds, butterfly conservatory, trees, birds, butterflies- you name it. This variety is not limited to flora & fauna, but extends to people too: joggers, poets, yoga practitioners, pet lovers, families on picnics, painters & lovers all lay claim to Lodi Garden. Even the dustbins have character! (more…)

Lodi Garden is quite a treat to explore. An easy walking terrain, picturesque monuments, birds & trees keep the senses engaged & if you are lucky, you might come across a hilarious photography session too! Our heritage walk here looks at the history of the buildings and the park.  (more…)

Heritage Walks at Lodi Garden are a regular feature of our calendar. This walking tour is usually organized in the evening, when it is pleasant to walk around the park. Our heritage walk starts at Mohammad Shah Sayyid’s tomb & covers Bara Gumbad, Shish Gumbad, Sikander Lodi’s tomb, a Mughal period bridge called Athpula, some late Mughal buildings & a standalone turret

Lodi Garden Heritage Walk

Delhi was pleasantly surprised by showers for a couple of days and we decided to carry on with our heritage walk at Lodi Garden since it is a comfortable terrain to walk in all seasons. The park has well laid out pavements all through our heritage trail. And we happened to be the only ones in the park, which is an unusual sight. The park is always full of people, joggers, people reading, children playing, lovers spending a quite time here.  ‘Lodi Garden’ happens to be a modern, post-independence name. (more…)

Delhi Heritage Walks organizes heritage walks to different parts of the city of Delhi. The focus is on lesser known areas which are best seen & observed by walking.  Lodi Garden is one of our regular walks, repeated frequently. This walking tour covers the tomb of Mohammad Shah Sayyid, Bara Gumbad, Shish Gumbad, tomb of Sikandar Lodi, a Mughal era bridge called Athpula, a couple of late Mughal buildings & a turret, probably from the 14^th century. The above are photos of the heritage walk to Lodi Garden on 25 November 2012, led by Moby Zachariah, team member, Delhi Heritage Walks.
