Long before it was a monument, it was Ghiyaspur — a village where a saint's khanqah drew seekers from every walk of life. A stepwell defied a Sultan's orders, a disciple lit a lamp with water instead of oil & earned the name Chiragh-e-Dilli, and a language was born in the meeting of Persian verse with Indian soil. Even today, the courtyard at Urs Mahal fills with Qawwali, keeping that same devotion alive.Silsila Heritage invites you to walk through the Dargah, the Baoli, Chausath Khamba & Urs Mahal — five stops through a landscape where spirituality & everyday life still meet. Along the way, we'll talk about the Chishti Sufi tradition, the legacy of Amir Khusrau, and how this neighborhood shaped the language, music & culture we've inherited.
Whether you know Nizamuddin for its qawwals, its stories, or simply its quiet corners, this walk is a chance to see it as a living tradition rather than a stop on a map!
Please Note: The walk does not include entering inside the dargah/shrine premises or experiencing a live Qawwali performance.
