Metro Purana Qila Nearest Metro Station

[Maddy56]

I live and Gurugram and will be traveling towards South Delhi to go and see the Purana Qila. I will be taking the metro train as it's easy.

I would like to know what metro station I need to stop at to reach the Purana Qila, the nearest metro station would be most useful one to know about.

HI, Maddy56.

The nearest metro station to the Purana Qila is Pragati Maidan Metro Station. The distance from Pragati Maidan Metro Station to the Purana Qila is 2.2km which would be around an 11 drive. So once you get out of the metro station you would need to get an auto rickshaw or taxi. Auto rickshaws are easily available outside all metro stations.

Please find an image below the location of the metro station according to the tourist place.
