The Lodi Garden was easily the best thing in Delhi that I visited. In a city of millions and millions of people and a lot of noisy, chaotic traffic the Lodi Gardens turned out to be a nice little oasis. I think it really helped that the air was actually kind of clear that day.
Lodi is basically Delhi’s version of Central Park, and is pretty popular for people to go to for picnics or a jog or to just hang out for an afternoon. Though I didn’t know it at the time, apparently there are actually some tombs along with the obvious presence of some architectural works in the garden.
I took a stroll through Lodi after visiting Humayan’s at the end of a decent day of sightseeing. It was a really nice change of pace to the city outside of the park. Check out a handful of pics I took during my visit.
Those are beautiful photographs. It must have been breathtaking to see that architecture in person.
Thanks.
My breath was taken away, but I suspect the poor air quality had more to do with it than the architecture. That’s more a statement on the terrible air than the architecture.
