Delhi Haats & Shows
DILLI
HAAT is not just a market place; it has been visualized as a showpiece of traditional
Indian culture- a forum where rural life and folk art are brought closer to
an urban clientele.
It is here that the crafts persons find an opportunity to demonstrate their
artistic skills to thousands of visitors everyday.
Since its inauguration in the month of March 1994, Dilli Haat has been home
to nearly 50,000 handicraft and handloom artisans. The sales generated, so far,
are estimated at Rupees three hundred crores.
The DILLI HAAT provides the ambience of a traditional Rural Haat or village
market, but one suited for more contemporary needs. Here one sees a synthesis
of crafts, food ad cultural activity.
This Food and Craft Bazar is a treasure house of Indian culture, handicrafts
and ethnic cuisine, A unique bazaar, in the heart of the city, it displays the
richness of Indian culture on a permanent basis.
Steps inside the complex for an altogether delightful experience by either buying
inimitable ethnic wares, savouring the delicacies of different states or by
simply relaxing in the evening with the entire family.
DILLI HAAT transports you to the magical world of Indian art and heritage presented
through a fascinating panorama of craft, cuisine and cultural activities.
