What you can expect
Your guide meets you at gate no 1 of Metro train station named “Jam Masjid metro Station”. After a quick briefing about the adventure to be unfolded, we start walking & discovering the 400 year old living city called “Old Delhi” memory.
The walk begins among the historic “Meena Bazaar”, once an opulent market for precious gems during erstwhile imperial “Mughal” era, but now a makeshift market serving the most common strata of the society, vendors are selling very budget economic materials for the common masses.
Soon we see imposing stone steps leading up to the “Jama Mosque”, it is considered to be the biggest mosque of India and built by the same emperor who built the “Taj Mahal”, we know him by the name “Shah Jahan”
NOTE: Visit to the mosque will be optional only and not compulsory, Entrance Fee of the “Jama mosque” is INR 350 Per Person, Still those who don't want to enter the mosque, they can have a photo-stop from outside
Time to delve into the Labyrinth hunting , enter into the maize of Old Delhi, while walking, discover heritage houses known as Haveli's due to their traditional and heritage designs. Multiple meandering bylanes leads to many bustling and dazzling markets doing business since the imperial Mughal age. These enigmatic quarters, bathed in twilight’s allure, promise an exploration of secrets whispered through time.
Soon we reach “SPICE MARKET” and begin our spice trails. We shall bump our way to a massive warehouse building where all the big spice merchants come, see and crack deals with the spices wholesaler merchants. Big bags of spices are cut half open for display, it results in the spices and aroma fill-up the air around. We soon enter one of the famous and old Spice depot / storehouse for a briefing about many famed Indian spices. You will be surprised to know that, in your home country how heavily you are paying for some of daily usage spices in your kitchen.
We then finally head back towards the nearest Metro train station / Uber point
