Long Weekend, No Plans? 10 FUN Things To Do In Delhi!

Delhi is a beautiful, vast city with some amazing activities stored up in every nook and cranny. You just have to be able to take a look around and discover that every new day is a good day (or, for that matter, night) in Delhi. Seriously, there is always so much to do. And as the long weekend is upon us, we’re going to tell you that there are so many cool things you can do in Delhi, if you didn’t know already.

1. A Game Of Paintball

Many of us want to go for paintball but hardly find the time or the people to go with. Because this is an activity that can be enjoyed thoroughly only with a huge group of people, it takes some time to plan and organize. But with the long weekend at your disposal, you have all the time to plan this fun activity with your friends and family. So gear up and bring out your game face!

We have your attention already, right? It’s one thing when you suddenly find elaborate and beautiful graffiti in places you least expect it but it’s another when you deliberately go and look for them. So, why not go for a graffiti trail? When it’s about discovering art in any form, time is never really of the essence.

8. Watch A Play

We recommend the Shri Ram Centre at the Mandi House Chowk. Why? Because there is never a dull day there. Full of amazing actors and very easy on the pockets, this place should be every play-goers paradise. Or you could also go to the India Habitat Centre. When it comes to plays, your limits are boundless.

Stay home, invite people over. Talk about history, talk about how far we’ve come and maybe watch the parade together too. It’s a grand day and you should celebrate it with the people you love. Staying home is as great an option as going out.
