Lodhi Garden: Audio Guide

Why Visit Lodhi Garden with an Audio Guide?

Lodhi Garden is the only surviving proof of the brief but impactful rule of the Lodhi dynasty in Delhi. While its modern beauty is captivating, the rich layers of history beneath often go unnoticed.

That’s where an audio guide makes all the difference. With Tourismo’s immersive audio tour, you can uncover historical insights while exploring at your pace. From the debated origins of the Bara Gumbad to the distinctive Lodhi-style architecture of Muhammad Shah’s Tomb, the guide reveals details even seasoned experts might overlook.
