Avoid run-of-the-mill cultural experiences with ‘Metro Walks’, a refreshing heritage experience launched by ‘India City Walks that showcases the capital city’s built heritage and cultural traditions in an earthy manner. With Metro Walks, you can cover up to seven historic locations in a span of few hours, without having to worry about traffic or unpredictable weather.

There is more to our favorite ride in the capital city than what meets the eye. Begin your weekend with a specially curated heritage metro experience hosted by ‘India City Walks’ in collaboration with DMRC that connects you with the present day relevance of DMRC, the backbone of the capital city, packing you off on a journey that ends at the haunted precincts of Firoz Shah Kotla, the abode of Delhi’s djinns.

 Kotla was once the opulent royal citadel of Firozabad, the fifth Delhi. Visitors, invaders like Timur and contemporary chroniclers have given glowing descriptions of its architectural grandeur. Today, the entire expanse of Kotla is a visual delight, from mysterious caves, burning incense sticks, folklore about fiery, free-spirited djinns and beautiful monumental remains.

Revisit the fifth city of Delhi where you get to imagine the grandeur of these structures through an array of colorful anecdotes. Walk through the relics of Firozabad, which was once the envy of Baghdad, the rival of Cairo and the equal of Constantinople
