Join us for a walk through Johnson Market and its surrounding areas discovering this quaint British-era marketplace from a fresh perspective. We'll delve into the area's unique Shia heritage tracing back to a Persian man who made this place his home decades ago. Few people know about the roads and localities named after him and his descendants—a fascinating piece of Bangalore’s history.

Our journey includes a stop at a legendary local bakery sipping on Sulaimani chai learning about the martyrs of Karbala and visiting a historic church.
