Picture this: a time when jazz bands were influencers, and high end fashion meant jeans from a tailor in CP who magically stitched it in minutes. We’ll meet people who carry these forgotten tales, interact with some and discuss the birth of big brands like Keventers while sipping a delicious shake from their first shop that very few people know about.
There will be many more nostalgic gems like one of India’s oldest toy shops where Indira Gandhi was a regular customer! Whether you’re a 70s kid, or someone who wants to live like one for a day, or love CP like you never have, this is THE walk for you.
What to expect:
- A 2 hour walk with an expert who knows all about Connaught Place- past, present and parallel.
- Fall in love with Delhi through nostalgia this Valentine’s Day, because some love stories are between you and your city.
- Stories of CPs you’ve never heard before in the 70s, jazz bars, old cinemas, and legendary cafés.
- Stop at iconic spots like Kwality, Wenger’s, and listen to their cool backstories.
- A look at stunning colonial-era buildings, secret alleyways, and forgotten landmarks.
- A classic Keventers milkshake, because some things never go out of style.
