Bhogal Bazaar Walk and rickshaw ride

What this tour is about: When India was partitioned in 1947, large numbers of Hindus and Sikhs migrated to Delhi from the Punjab area of what is now Pakistan. Overcoming the traumatic events of Partition, the Punjabi migrants built their lives afresh in Delhi. Many of them settled in the Jangpura-Bhogal area of Delhi, establishing homes and businesses there. In the process, the city was enriched by the robust Lahori cuisine and culture.

The bazaar at Bhogal is a great place to meet Delhi's Punjabi community and see their daily life. There are traditional clay ovens (tandoors) baking bread, including the extra-large Afghani tandoors. Snack shops do brisk business and street food vendors rustle up popular favourites. You can taste some of the local speciality foods if interested.

After the walk, we will take a rickshaw ride through the residential area, with its local temples and gurudwaras. These religious institutions played a key role in helping the community build their lives.
