Art Attack: New Delhi’s Romance With Street Art

Delhi’s affair with art and culture can be spotted easily while strolling through the bylanes of the city. While the magnificent Mughal architecture is spread across the city, there are small, quaint walls with murals adorning them. As the city heads towards winters, early morning or late evening strolls are marked on everybody’s to do list. Whether a native or not, everybody shares a bond with Delhi’s rich cultural history. And explore and enhance this further we suggest a stroll through Delhi’s Lodhi colony where each wall has a story of its own to tell. Worry not if you’ve already ticked this off your list, as murals as recent as two months old now adorn the city walls. Art, as they say, liberates you, and helps your express yourself. As we go around the city, we find some of these expressions, each telling a story of its own. 

We capture a glimpse of this affair and bring it to you:

Post this we suggest you grab a scrumptious meal at Chidambaram’s New Madras Hotel. Extremely tiny and easy to miss, Chidambaram is what the locals swear by. We suggest you try their kurkure idli and absolutely not miss the filter coffee.
