Virtual tour 7: Saturday, Apr. 10, Sufis in Delhi, 6 to 7.30 pm IST, Charges Rs 600.
We travel from Mehrauli to Nizamuddin in this virtual tour, meeting Sufi saints of a bygone era. Have you ever wondered why Emperor Humayun is buried in Nizamuddin? We visit the shrines of the most revered Sufi mystics as well as the tombs of poets, emperors and princesses interred in the vicinity. We also journey to other parts of Delhi to meet famous Sufis, like the ‘naked fakir’ who challenged Aurangzeb, and Delhi’s female saints – mysticism is not all-male-dominated!
