Salaam Baalak Trust City Walk.
Salaam Baalak Trust, has developed an exciting city walk through the enchanting streets of the inner city of Paharganj and the New Delhi railway Station area. Nobody knows Delhi's streets better than the young people who are fully trained as guides. These spirited youngsters will take you on an tour while sharing with you the journey of their lives.
The walk includes the living and built heritage of the area, taking you down the back streets to find hidden cultural practices and gives you a feel for life here in yesteryear. You will also see how the trust provides opportunities for street children and see what amazing things they can achieve when given an opportunity.
What is the purpose of the walk?
The city walk aims to sensitize people to the lives of street children. It's a unique way of engaging people in the lives of children in distress. The walk also provides an opportunity for the young people to improve their communication and speaking skills. All proceeds go directly to the trust to enable more opportunities to be made for street children so the walk is 100% non-profit making.
Is the walk intrusive in any way?
The walk is given from the perspective of the guides who enjoy sharing their lives and experiences. The walk is not a slum tour because we do not go into a slum at anytime and photos are not allowed on the walk in the station.
Who is the walk for?
Anyone interested in the city of Delhi, its stories, its heritage and those who are concerned about street life.
