The ‘happening’ aspect of Delhi comes to life at night when the streets are empty and the unadventurous population of the world has gone to sleep.

The only trouble is, most of us don’t know where the hidden party places and chilling zones are in the city or what they have to offer! And guys, that’s not where it ends. There are spots for photography, stargazing, ghost walks and so much more! We’ve put together for you a complete synopsis of the rocking nightlife in Delhi that can help you the next time you venture out into the dark streets of the city.

P.S: This piece has an experience for every kind of a night crawlers. Be it the party animal or the party pooper, the crazy rider or hungry soul! You might want to start planning right away. Read More...
