Lodhi Art District

Lodhi Art district is famous for the murals. I believe it's quite easy to spot the murals and there is an app which helps you find them. But I did a walk with St+art, who took us around the area showing us interesting murals, including one currently being painted as part of the ongoing Lodhi Art festival. It was fun as the tour leader was also giving us insights into the art work itself. However, just to inform, if you are visiting to see the Lodhi Art festival, nothing specific is going on unless it's a workshop.

A simple thought to look for meaningful murals and expressions of art and culture brought me to the Lodhi Art District just yesterday. And I must say, it felt like a truly blessed day. As it turns out, the older artworks were being replaced with new creations to celebrate 10 years of this vibrant art district. The streets were alive, with tourists exploring and artists at work, adding fresh life to the walls. I began my walk through Blocks 13, 14, 10, and beyond. With every step, I was completely immersed in the mesmerizing colours and creativity around me. Time seemed to slip away I didn’t even realise when an hour and a half had passed. One of the most special moments was speaking with an artist who was painting a mural. Seeing the artwork through his perspective added a whole new depth to the experience. Nearby, many young people were participating in a graffiti workshop, with paints sponsored by Asian Paints, adding even more energy to the space. This district art festival, running from 1st to 28th February, felt like a living transformation and I felt lucky to witness it in progress. What makes it even more beautiful is how the murals blend with the buildings themselves. The large window-shaped openings in the structures complement the artwork perfectly, turning each wall into a grand canvas. And the best part? This entire artistic experience is completely free. You can slowly drive through, pause to admire, or step out for photos. It’s truly a wonderful spot for a peaceful walk or a vibrant photo session. Open 24 hours

It is a beautiful place to visit, the wall murals and painting are huge like any theatre Screen. The artists have done a wonderful job in putting life to these walls with vibrant colours. Take your time to absorb it all while wandering around the streets. It's free guys. A must go place for Art Lovers. 😀

Good photo spot. Feels nice seeing various art on the buildings. Visited after 7 years so noticed that some art were destroyed. People should take care and protect them.

It was very exhilarating experience to watch see feel art on the housing walks. It was also soul stimulating to read artist thoughts Behind his Creation. I saw only few walls But very sad to see the conditions. Half torned posters. Dirty walls I wish the responsible authorities could be little alert and save this unique exhibition. I wish some an be done to preserve Lodhi art district

fantastic photo ops with great mural art. unfortunately the fest performances were limited to weekends only and this was un clear from the adverts. the art site gave a map but it was challenging and didnt give info on the artists. but a wonderful bicycle rickshaw wallah made it possible to get a good overall viewing across the fairly large area

If you want feel calm in busy New Delhi, I really recommend visit here! The paintings on buildings so beautiful, and streets very quiet, few cars, few people. Can walk slow, enjoy colors and small peaceful moments! You see kids play cricket, jump rope feel easy life of local people😊 I find some small cafes and restaurants around, nice to stop and feel local vibe. I came around 5pm, not hot, perfect for slow walk. Sunset is amazing, really beautiful, don’t miss that time!!👍🏻👍🏻 Walk big around district, then go Lodhi Garden and slowly to Khan Market. Good way see local life and finish evening relax. Perfect afternoon and evening in Delhi

Nice leafy suburb of Delhi away from the city crush,many murals painted on the side of buildings,it is a shame that some of them are not in very good condition as I am sure they would bring more tourists to the area if they were maintained.
