Activity itinerary

Okhla Vihar
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Sanjay Colony slum is not as large as “Dharavi” slums of Mumbai, however It covers an 18 acre area and has 45,000 residents. This area earlier was a forest when dwellers started coming to the area in 1979. Sanjay Colony slum visit gives an insight into the life of its dwellers where dwellers are busy in their indigenous cottage industries styled units. Although poor but the dwellers have got enough talent to earn their living their way. You will come across religious structures from temples to mosques, a small doctor’s office to schools and may garment making units.
Connaught Place
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Visit The land of the "Dhobis" (traditional washer-men) comes alive every morning with the sound of clothes being beaten against concrete slabs. The Yamuna river is far, so the ghat relies on borewell water, chilamchis (cement tubs), hauds (tanks), naandis (pools) and hydras, electric machines that soak out water. In an age when washing machines have become part of households, why do people still give their clothes to dhobis? Actually most people clean their clothes in washing machines, but for major cleaning, they rely on Dhobis.
Agrasen ki Baoli
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Agrasen ki Baoli is definitely an architectural marvel. It has three stories and 108 steps which goes down to the well. Agrasen Ki Baoli also has a resemblance to the baolis or baodis (stepwells) in Gujarat and Rajasthan. The water inside the well of Agrasen Ki Baoli is said to hypnotise people and allure them to commit suicide. It is said that the well had black water, which mysteriously killed people. People don’t go there in the evenings due to the stories about place as being haunted. To conclude, you will be driven back to your hotel in Delhi.
