Event Description : Delhi Karavan presents "Shaam e Nizamuddin Aulia" Heritage Walk at Nizamuddin Basti.
Ek shaam kisse aur kahaaniyo'n ke naam at Dargah-e-Mehboob-i- Ilaahi...After we have meandered lanes where the mundane and mystical blend seamlessly…Where the living & breathing Sufi symphonies of music & spiritual healing teach us lessons of love, hope & co-existence.....
Where the shayari & music of Khwaja Amir Khusrau still resonates gently...where Qawwals mesmerise you with their soulful singing, as you murmur a silent prayer.….and where we share hazaar stories while you unravel the Heritage wonders of a bygone era.....
ATTRACTIONS: We visit the ‘Urs Mahal’ where all the Dargah’s (mausoleum of a holy man) annual festivities are held and the ‘Chausanth Khamba’ (64-Pillared hall) made entirely of white marble. Know more about the world-renowned Urdu/Persian Shayar (Poet) Mirza Ghalib, for whom history says that ‘he was a great poet, but an infamous one!’ and hear stories of another great Poet, but of another era, Amir Khusrau. Gaze upon the hidden gem of a well-preserved Mughal architecture, Atgah Khan’s tomb, tucked away in the narrow alleys of Nizamuddin Basti and the 14th Century Baoli which caused the downfall of a city and its arrogant Sultan! We end our visit at the Dargah of Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya, where lie Mazaar-e-Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya and Mazaar-e-Hazrat Amir Khusrau (Tombs of the revered Khwaja and his disciple Khusrau) and numerous other unknown graves, and which forms the backdrop for Sufi musical performances by famous Qawaals (Singers of mystic Sufi verses) who sing Qawwalis in praise of the Holy Saint and the Almighty.
Note:Our discussion will be done in Zabaan-e-Dehli (Urdu/Hindi ONLY)
