    Green Neko

    Grab a coffee and settle into Green Neko. The café opens at 13:00 and stays open well into the evening, so you have plenty of time to enjoy the quiet before the crowds arrive.

  2. 16:46

    Deer Park

    Walk 22 minutes northwest to Deer Park. Arrive just in time to find a bench or a spot near the boating lake. The park is large enough that you can avoid the busiest paths and get a clear view of the western horizon.

  3. 17:46

    Deer Park

    Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light from 17:11 will have already washed over the Deer Park landscape, highlighting the Tomb of Firoz Shah Tughlaq at the corner and the silhouettes of the deer and peacocks.

  4. 18:31

    T.L.R. Cafe & Kitchen

    Walk four minutes back toward the park entrance to T.L.R. Cafe & Kitchen. It is open until 01:00 daily, making it a perfect spot for a late continental dinner or just a digestif after the sunset.

Local tip

The walk from the anchor is 22 minutes, so plan your departure from Chor Minar accordingly. Green Neko is only 9 minutes from Deer Park, making it an easy pre-sunset stop.
