Soak in the colors of India!
Dilli Haat (Dilli= Delhi and Haat= open air market place) is a popular haunt of Delhites and tourists--it's not only a shopper's and foodie's paradise, but an authentic glimpse of the colorful culture and traditions of India! Walk into the spacious open air forum with a welcome from folk dancers, taste the variety of Indian cuisine,(every state has an outlet to sell its specialities), buy hand made products from craftsmen who come from all over India (and sometimes demonstrate their skills)watch cultural programs, or simply soak in the dazzling colors of India!
