New Delhi ~ Wedding at Delhi's several historical sites will no longer be a dream, as the city government is planning to open them to a host of events.

A scheme allowing bookings of select heritage monuments for weddings and cultural events is in the works, an official said.

Several monuments under the Delhi Archaeology Department have been shortlisted for the initiative.

Mutiny Memorial at Northern Ridge, built in 1863 to commemorate soldiers who died during the Revolt of 1857, the Dara Shikoh Library at Kashmere Gate, once the residence of Mughal prince Dara Shikoh and later a British office, Maqbara Paik near the GTK bus depot, a Mughal-era tomb believed to belong to one of the imperial couriers, are some of these monuments, the official said.

The tomb in Sadhana Enclave, a Lodi-period structure reflecting early Indo-Islamic architecture, and the pavilions at Qudsia Garden, part of an 18th-century palace complex built by Qudsia Begum, wife of Emperor Muhammad Shah, are in the list of places where civilian affairs will be consummated.
