About This Location

Hauz Khas Village combines a 13th-century reservoir complex — with Firuz Shah's tomb, madrasa ruins, and pavilions — with a trendy urban village of cafes, boutiques, and galleries. The lakeside ruins with deer in the adjacent park and the bohemian art murals create a uniquely eclectic backdrop. Pre-wedding shoots here blend medieval heritage with modern urban aesthetics.
