New Delhi / Monument

If you only visit one monument in Delhi, it should be this one in my books, especially in the evenings. Humayun's tomb is more than a singular tomb. There are lovely lawns, neighbouring structures, and a massive terrace with a view of the sprawling greenery and a sunset if you plan your trip well. It also happens to be right across Sunder Nursery, which means your evening is sorted.

New Delhi / Art Centre

Black Box Okhla is performance art space and residency that offers a blank canvas to theatre productions that build worlds within it and how. Plays here to are no ordinary performer/audience set ups. Instead, the seating on three sides of the stage makes for an intimate viewing experience.

New Delhi / Restaurant

Casual, light-filled eatery serving traditional Bihari cuisine in airy quarters with garden tables. Don't leave Potbelly without trying the Saboodana Tikkis.

New Delhi / Cafe

Perfect brunch place with great coffee and shockingly good pizzas (which isn't typically breakfast food I know, but a good excuse to extend your sunday afternoon to a late pizza lunch). They also have a dog menu and are pet friendly! The couches all have plug points built in at the bottom which makes me regret not getting my computer and spending the whole day here at every visit. Gets packed quick on Sundays though!

New Delhi / Art

Serendipity Arts Foundation is an arts and cultural development foundation where artists often share the outcome of their month long residencies with the foundation. Their publications are available to purchase on the ground floor, and spaces in the basement are generally occupied by immersive exhibits. This one combines temporary structures, light, sound design and video art and was the work of the very talented Aabshaar Wakhloo.
