Lodhi Garden
Lodhi Garden is a large, landscaped park built around the tombs of several 15th-century Lodhi and Sayyid dynasty rulers, blending historical architecture with manicured lawns, old trees, and a small lake. It's one of Delhi's most popular parks for walking and jogging, especially among the city's professional and diplomatic crowd given its location near Khan Market and the diplomatic enclave.
The tombs themselves, particularly the domed Sheesh Gumbad and Bara Gumbad, are worth appreciating beyond the greenery, and the park's combination of history and open space makes it a relaxed, worthwhile stop regardless of time of day.
