Listen to the Hypnotic Sounds
of Qawwali Music
at an Ancient Sufi Shrine
For a deeper understanding of Delhi’s history of Mughal rule and cultural influence, visit Hazrat Nizamuddin Dargah, an over 400 year old mausoleum dedicated to a 14th century mystic saint. Immerse yourself in the centuries old tradition of qawwali, a form of poetic, passionate, lively Sufi music that will place you in a trance. This popular site is filled with thousands of pilgrims each week; expect crowds, aroma of incense, offering of flowers and possible touts looking to take advantage of tourists. Move past for a magical musical experience that transports you to 14th century Delhi. Qawwali sessions take place every evening (except Thursdays) from 7:45pm-8:30pm.
