While the vibes are good and inside the dargah campus is clean, the outside campus is dirty, and the local people literally force you to buy as many flower plates as they say. It may frighten a tourist so they need to be more considerate. Better to visit during daytime.

You have to walk through narrow lanes to reach the shrine's gate. Wear sandles and only take off your shoes and sandles near the gate. Shop keepers will call you to take off shoes at their shops , don't; wait till you reach the gate. Inside they will push for donation to four different areas be careful. If visiting for the first time follow regular people and imitate them. You can buy some flowers like me to spread over the shrine.

A Haven of Peace and Harmony Dargah Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia If you find yourself in Delhi, a visit to the Dargah Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia is an absolute must. This sacred space pulsates with an atmosphere of profound peace, prosperity, love, and happiness that is truly captivating. From the moment you step into the bustling lanes leading to the shrine, you are enveloped in a unique cultural experience that touches your soul. The air resonates with devotional music (Qawwali), the scent of incense, and the murmur of prayers. It's a place where people from all walks of life, irrespective of their religious beliefs, come together with unwavering faith. Witnessing this unity and devotion is incredibly moving. The architecture, steeped in history, adds to the spiritual ambiance, transporting you to another time. While the overall experience is deeply enriching, it's wise to be mindful of your surroundings. Like any popular religious site, there can be individuals who may try to exploit the faith of visitors through donation scams. It's best to be cautious and avoid engaging with anyone who approaches you with unsolicited offers for Dargah updates or requests for your personal information. Stick to official donation boxes if you wish to contribute. Despite this minor caution, the Dargah Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia remains a powerful and uplifting experience. It's a place where you can find solace, witness the beauty of shared faith, and immerse yourself in a vibrant cultural tapestry. Don't miss the opportunity to experience this spiritual heart of Delhi.

Nizamuddin Dargah is a spiritually uplifting and historically significant site nestled in the heart of Delhi. This revered Sufi shrine, dedicated to the 14th-century saint Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya, attracts devotees from all walks of life, as well as tourists drawn to its rich cultural aura. The atmosphere here is truly soulful — the air is filled with the scent of roses and incense, and the rhythmic qawwalis in the evenings evoke a deep sense of peace and devotion. However, the area can be quite crowded, especially during the evenings and on Thursdays. One must be prepared for narrow lanes and a bit of congestion, especially while approaching the main shrine. A major tip for first-time visitors: do not take off your shoes right at the beginning of the lane. There are shopkeepers who might coax you to leave your footwear early, far from the actual entrance. Instead, walk closer to the Dargah — there is a dedicated shop very near the main gate where you can safely and conveniently leave your shoes. The site offers a mix of architectural beauty and spiritual calm, with intricately designed marble domes, carved pillars, and gold embellishments adding to its charm. While it may lack the modern amenities of more commercialized religious sites, the authenticity and devotion here are unmatched. Whether you're seeking blessings, cultural exploration, or peace of mind, Nizamuddin Dargah offers an experience that lingers long after you leave.

I recently visited Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya Dargah with my family, and it was a truly peaceful and spiritual experience. If you're seeking inner peace and a deep sense of calm, this is a must-visit place. Do keep in mind to dress modestly, as it’s a religious site and should be respected accordingly. After completing the prayer, if you're a non-veg food lover, I highly recommend visiting Hussaini Hotel, which is just a short walk away. The food there is absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavors and worth the wait! A soulful visit followed by a hearty meal — overall, a memorable experience.

I spent a night here on eed holidays when i was going to agra. This palace is amazing 😍, and equipped with lights. This palace is a religious palace, it is a dargah of Khawaja ji. This palace welcomes all religions without any restrictions. Many peoples come here for prayer 🙏 or visit. This palace is not so big. Here you will see some qwwaals singing qwaalies. Peoples doing pray. Dargah has two entry gates. You may find Free food here (as langar). There is a mosque inside the dargah too. You can read islamic books Thier and if you want books for free you can take them. There are too many hotels near dargah but please beware of scams. Put your shoes and slippers inside your bag 🛍️ and don't leave anywhere (peoples offering there for leaving shoes for free but they ask for money later) and also beware of scam of chadar and sheerni. Dargah closes after 11 in night and opens near 5 in the morning. There is no toilet for common peoples here , a public toilet is nearby but that one closes in the evening and opens in the morning. I will suggest you to stay in a hotel (according to your budget.) You cannot spend the night in dargah for sleeping (this is a rule after corona covid 19 time).. there are so many places to visit nearby as like tomb of Humayun and many more. Nearest metro station and railway station: nijamuddin sarai kale khan 🚇 and hajrat nijamuddin railway station 🚉 Kindly choose auto wisely, auto charges may be 50 to 150 now (2025).
