Contoured with lush green landscape, lakes, old forts and a deer park, this place is a one-stop-shop for every kind of explorer. From bars to cafes, fashion outlets to spas, and from tattoo studios to stationary stalls – Hauz Khas Village is all that you need on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Or, a tipsy Friday night!
