Hola Steemians !!
Today, I'm sharing memories and pictures from my visit to Ghalib Ki Haveli.
Born on 17 December 1797, Mirza Ghalib is considered to be greatest Urdu and Persian poet by many. Ghalib Ki Haveli (now a heritage site) was the residence of the poet. Ghalib Ki Haveli is situated at Gali Qasim Jaan, Ballimaran, Old Delhi.
Ghalib Ki Haveli gives an insight into the 19th century mughal lifestyle. After the take over by Delhi Government, it was renovated to give a glimpse of Ghalib's life in Haveli. Huge portraits of Ghalib, his books and other things belonging to him can be seen in the Haveli.
Haveli contains a sculpture of Ghalib installed in 2010 by Delhi Government.
