This attraction in Delhi is pretty much overlooked and is
often passed by people without being noticing. Satpula Bridge is located in the
posh locale of Saket is a medieval structure. It is an ancient water
harvesting weir. It served to provide water for irrigation and also as a
restraint against enemy forces. You will find peace here, away from the
South Delhi scenes. Satpula or seven bridges was erected in 1343 AD by Sultan
Muhammad Bin Tughlaq of Tughlaq Dynasty over a Yamuna River fed stream. You can
see the seven arches aligned with water tunnels placed below although they have
been long damaged. This two-storey high structure hosts a soothing and green
area, perfect to relax and see a completely different side of Delhi. There
are seven main openings along with two minor ones.
One of the many hidden treasures of this city it's a must
visit if you want to explore the city with a totally non-mainstream
perspective. Take a day off or go during the weekends and indulge yourself in
the nostalgia of the city we all love.
