The land – Khasra No 258 spills out the Parisian scent from every nook. This hidden gem is known as ‘Champa Gali’ is located in the Lane no.3 of Saidulajab (a village in Saket).

His stunning carpentry and tea stall (Jugmug Thela) led to the rise of Champa Gali.

I was meeting everyone at INA metro station which was midway and then, I was to take up the responsibility of driving everyone around for the day from there.
