Lodhi Garden
लोधी गार्डन
A large urban park in central New Delhi, where 15th- and 16th-century tombs from the Lodi and Sayyid dynasties dot the greenery. It is a favorite spot for locals to exercise in the morning.
Lodhi Garden covers about 36 hectares and is home to monuments including Muhammad Shah's Tomb, Sikandar Lodi's Tomb, Bara Gumbad and Shish Gumbad, as well as an eight-pillared bridge. The ancient structures, set against lawns and palm trees, make a striking scene. Early mornings and evenings bring locals out for walks and yoga, and the relaxed atmosphere offers a welcome break from the bustle of Old Delhi. Entry is free, and the garden is right next to Khan Market, so you can browse its bookshops and cafés afterward.
