關於
Ghalib ki Haveli (ALA-LC: G̱ẖālib kī Ḥawelī IPA: [ˈɣɑːlɪb kiː ɦəˈʋeːliː], lit. 'Ghalib's Mansion') is a haveli in Gali Qasim Jan (lit. 'Qasim Jan Street'), Ballimaran, in the Chandni Chowk neighbourhood of Old Delhi. It was the residence of the 19th-century Indian poet Ghalib and is now a heritage site. Its Mughal architecture reflects the period when the Mughal era was on the decline in India.
The house was given to him by Hakim, a physician who is believed was an enthusiast of his poetry. After the poet's death in 1869, Hakim used to sit there every evening, not allowing anyone enter the building.
