Jashn-e-Ramzaan: Iftaari Sey Sehri Tak Night Walk

Jashn-e-Ramzaan: Iftaar Sey Sehri Tak Night Food & Heritage Walk in Purani Dilli

DBF takes you on a specially curated #Ramzaan night walking tour this Saturday Night....cutting across the glitz & lights of Iftaar markets of the Jama Masjid which are a riot of lights, colors, festive gaiety and obviously food! Imagine the chaotic streets of Old Delhi during the month of Ramzaan slowly transform into sedate zones, as families indulge in hectic bargaining for their Eid-ul-Fitr shopping... Then imagine the hushed silences in winding dark alleys, off-the-beaten paths around Jama Masjid...the streets seemingly dozing off by 3:00AM as the markets wind up...the lights dim and the residents go back to their homes...a place of legendary stories, shadowy secrets, mysteries and maybe a ghost or two who haunt the narrow alleys of this "Mughal Princesses' Markets"...broken occasionally by the shouts of teams of young kids who are playing a night cricket match !!!

Bringing you this unseen flavour of Ramzaan in Delhi in our annual walk experience starting after 'Iftaar' (breaking of Roza, the daily fast, every evening) and then walking the vibrant markets through the night till when it is time for 'Suhur' (the time of last morning meal before Roza fasting for the day begins)...The perfect time for "F&F" - Foods & Fotography!
