Ballimaran

Anybody who knows me, would confirm how madly, completely and truly I'm in love with Chandni Chowk. So when I got a chance for a photo walk in Ballimaran (A part of Chandni Chowk) I grabbed it with both hands.

Ballimaran is famous because of the "Ghalib Ki Haveli", home to the famous urdu poet of the Mughal Times. Ghalib spent the last nine years of his life there.

The Haveli is in shambles today and was being used as shops till December 1999 when Delhi Government acquired some parts of the Haveli and set up a Memorial Museum dedicated to Mirza Ghalib
