Ramzan

The Islamic festival of fasting & feasting

Apart from the Mughal Empire’s legacy of mosques and mausoleums, the festival of Ramzan is a tradition that continues to date. Ironically, the festival marks a month of fasting in Muslim communities, yet it is better known for its post-sunset culinary fervor. After a day of fasting, the streets of most major cities across India come alive with numerous stalls and hawkers selling specialties from meat preparations to sweetmeats, drawing crowds of religious and foodie folk. Travel Scope recommends Ramzan Trails through Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad, as you discover Mughal architecture by day, and revel in the culinary traditions by night.
