The Sahrawalas: The Voices That Wake Up Delhi for Suhoor
In the historic streets of Old Delhi, the Sahrawalas&mdash;traditional town criers&mdash;walk through neighborhoods before dawn, reciting prayers and poems to wake residents for Suhoor. This unique practice has been passed down since the Mughal era, keeping alive the spirit of community and devotion.

As the sun sets, Delhi&rsquo;s famous Jama Masjid market comes to life. Crowds gather to enjoy classic iftar treats, including:
Juicy kebabs sizzling on open grills

Every Ramadan, these flavors bring people together, creating a festive and heartwarming atmosphere. From kunafa in Egypt to sweet Pirni in India, Ramadan sweets are loved across cultures. What&rsquo;s your go-to dessert for breaking your fast? Let us know!
