Several individuals and organisations have started heritage walks in Delhi, many schools and colleges have woken to the idea of heritage and environment conservation, small groups have started meeting and going on heritage walks or organising cycling tours of Delhi. Percival Spear, who taught History at St. Stephens College, used to take his students on such bicycle rides. One of his books “Delhi, its Monuments and History”, is actually woven around these bicycle rides, a new version updated and annotated by Prof. Narayani Gupta and Laura Sykes was brought out by Oxford in 2010. The book should be acquired by all those who want to explore the city on their own.
