Lodhi Colony, Residential district in New Delhi, India.
Lodhi Colony features government housing structures with geometric architecture spread across multiple blocks intersected by wide, tree-lined streets.
The British administration constructed this residential zone in the 1940s as their final development project before India gained independence.
The district walls display over fifty large-scale murals created by Indian and international artists, forming India's first public art neighborhood.
The neighborhood connects to central Delhi through multiple transportation options, including the nearby Jor Bagh and INA Metro stations.
The district contains three major markets - Khanna Market, Meherchand Market, and Main Market - offering local goods and international cuisine.

This selection presents wall paintings in cities worldwide. Public art changes urban landscapes through colors and shapes. From social themes to graphic designs, these locations show international street art in alleys, on building walls and public squares.
Urban art transforms global cities into open-air galleries, where walls serve as canvases for artistic expression. From Miami to Berlin, from São Paulo to New Delhi, murals and graffiti redefine public spaces and encourage visitors to explore neighborhoods dedicated to this form of contemporary art. These works, often large-scale, reflect social, political, and cultural concerns while enriching residents' daily lives. In Miami, Wynwood district has established itself as an international reference with 7,500 square meters of walls painted by artists from sixteen countries. Berlin, a city shaped by history, features the East Side Gallery, where 1.3 kilometers of the former Wall display 105 murals by artists from twenty-one countries. In São Paulo, Beco do Batman in Vila Madalena offers a colorful route through alleys filled with evolving artworks. New Delhi also has Lodhi Colony, where large murals by international artists interact with local architecture. These locations allow an understanding of urban art's diversity and vibrancy.
