In the 90s, someone in the government came up with a very smart idea. A space was developed where the artisans( hope am using the right word) could showcase their work. Also artisans could come in direct contact with the buyers and sell their wares. So, this would become a space where the artisans from far flung areas of India could sell what they produce. Also, people from Delhi and visiting tourists could buy Indian handicrafts here. The range is huge. It is an enclosed space with food stalls so it could be a place for family outings too. The idea has gained huge popularity and now dilli haat has become a landmark in the heart of Delhi.

| These are small shops that get assigned to an artisan for say a period of one month in a go |
 |
| this is a food stall in the middle of it all |
 |
| so you have food stalls from different states of the country and good seating space too |
 |
| look at those colours |
I blog about it because I quite like this place. Interesting place to visit especially if you are from outside India.
