through Patel Chest towards the Hudson Lane area where (apart from food) you can stock up stationery, household items (if you live alone in the city), and other basic necessitie­s. The final pit stop is GTB Nagar Market, which again offers a myriad of shopping options. One can also get tattooed, play your favourite video game at various game arcades and score some mean accessorie­s on the route.

One of the best modes of transporta­tion (and currently all the rage) to traverse through Delhi University’s (DU) North Campus is a bicycle that can be rented at Vishwavidy­alaya Metro Station. Available in colours red and green, one can rent them for free by submitting an ID proof.

So, if you’re one of those who loves to pedal through the varsity or at least wishes to — here are three routes that we have specially-curated to acquaint you with the very best available around North Campus. Food is something you can’t afford to miss at North Campus. And this route gives you the best of it all! Start at Vishwavidy­alaya Metro Station and cycle your way to the centre of the campus where one can try the best of canteen offerings from Delhi School of Economics, Hindu College and Ramjas College. Continue the canteen trail at Kirori Mal College and Hans Raj College whilst sampling some delicious street offerings that are scattered all along the route (think channa kulcha, bhelpuri, kachoris and more). The second pit stop is Kamla Distance covered: Distance covered: Nagar where one can savour momos, chhole bhature and other street food options before heading towards the third pit stop — Tom Uncle Maggi Point, which is adjacent to the Ramjas College wall. Cycle your way across Patel Chest, which has many mini food joints and fast food vans, to reach Hudson Lane. This place has some of the best food joints and bakeries in the area. And if street food is your thing, then the last pit stop at GTB Nagar offers foods from lip-smacking Chinese food to paranthas. The best part is guilt-free food indulgence, since you would be cycling through out this tour! 30-minutelong
