The charm of ancient civilizations who built and beautified the city of Delhi is unparalleled. But the one man, because of whom, today, we find so many monuments of the Mamluks and Khiljis, in a witnessable condition was the third Sultan of the third dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate, Feroz Shah Tughlaq.
Join us, as we head on to explore his abode, his city, the 5th city of Delhi, Feroz Shah Kotla, also famous as The City of Djinns. Built on the banks of the river Yamuna in 1354, at quite a distance from the previous four cities, this fort complex has borne pride from one of the most beautiful palaces of Delhi and an Ashokan pillar and has also witnessed bloody treacheries in its dark dungeon cells. From the tales of the most progressive times of the Delhi Sultanate to the fables of curses and djinns, we will embark on a journey to discover how a fort got converted into a residence of supernatural elements. The concept of Djinns and their controversial significant existence in the city of Delhi will be a highlight of this walk as we will delve deep into their legends, connecting illusions to reality.
