Ruins of 18th-Century Sarai Juliana Identified Beneath Delhi Flyover
Beneath Delhi's Modi Mill flyover on Mathura Road, ruins possibly belonging to Sarai Juliana, an 18th-century travellers' inn built by Dona Juliana Dias da Costa, have been identified. The structure, dating to 1720 during Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah's reign, served as a rest house for European travellers along the historic Sadak-e-Azam route. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi plans to notify the site as a heritage monument, recognizing its historical significance despite its current urban surroundings.
