The Place

In south New Delhi, India, Inside the old JNU campus.

Who Went

  • Madmita - by Walk, Delhi Metro, Autorickshaw.

Expedition

Probably the first Geo Hash by an Indian, Yaaayyy!!!

It was time for an adventure, time to get out of the cube and enjoy the few rain drops announcing the onset of winter in Delhi. I re-checked the map, the place was known and well connected by public transport. The metro was a bit crowded, the autoride was breezy to say the least. I walked inside old JNU campus and started hunting for the coordinates. I could only get so close, surrounded by a wall and locked park gates. The amazing thing about this Geo Hash was that even though I have lived close to Old JNU campus for two years, I have never been inside it! I've travelled on the roads outside but had no reason to explore the campus and was surprised to find a huge park, all green and clean, inside those walls! I've been in Delhi for 10 years now and still have so much yet to explore! Yay! A novel solution to overcome my mid-week crisis!
