Explore Old Delhi on foot
The winding lanes of Old Delhi (former Shahjahanabad), bear testament to centuries of Mughal rule! Start your walk at the Red Fort, built by Shah Jahan in the 17 th century, and continue towards Chandni Chowk, one of the oldest and busiest of Delhi’s markets. Take a detour through Dariba Kalan – Asia’a largest jewellery market, to shop for silver and curios, before heading to the famous Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India. End your walk with a traditional Mughlai meal at Karim’s or Al Jawahar in the Masjid area. #MMTProTip: If you’re in the area on a Sunday, don’t miss the Sunday Book Market at Daryaganj – a two-kilometre long stretch of pavement that sells old books at incredibly cheap prices.
