There must be about hundreds of parks in Delhi... i must say I haven't been to many but i do the to be I love the must and have been to the most the Deer Park in Safdarjung enclave.
Some Sundays there is a congregation of drummers at the park, when and what time they will meet is an insider info.. its absolutely word of mouth .. and its an eclectic mix of tourists, students, office goers and musicians some professional some semi-professional most are hobby drummers.. They all come together and play as one and it is awesome to experience. They say music is a powerful thing and they kid you not because only the sound of drums and happy people and you will feel your feet tapping. You will see alot of the people join in and dance some will also try their hands on the drums if the owners are willing which usually they are.. As the sound of drums vibrates more and people in the park join in and you will see everyone mesmerized in the sheer power of music with no words just pure, raw and unedited music.
Notice the monkey hanging from the home-made drum set... absolutely precious!!!
PS:- I know the photos are not all that great because I couldn't get good pictures (remember I am 5" ;-)) hehe) lots of crowd ... promise next time I will go prepared and get better photos maybe take a stool along to stand on lol!!
