Description

Surprising--it is one of the words that best describes what Delhi is. As the capital city, one of the main delights that it offers is that it is a hub for textile (and yes that means shopping!!) where you’ll be able to fulfil all your desires of everything Indian in your wardrobe and this tour offers exactly that. We take you to one of the best kept secrets of Delhi when we talk about textiles--Shahpur Jat.
Shah (wealth) pur (colony) Jat (a clan) meaning a locality of the rich jats, is an urban hub for all things textiles. This neighbourhood is filled with shops that show you the best of the best in every aspect possible. It also has a hidden secret of shops that offer you to see the step-by-step process of how a fabric is created from scratch and turned into a beautiful piece of garment. This may require you to get your hands dirty a little bit as we will stop to do a bit of dying and weaving--- giving you an overall experience of how the end product is made.
The tour culminates with some food in our bellies and memories to take home
