The profession may range from ear cleaning to body massage to Champi (head massage). Believe it or not they are the real experts and better than many who work in big hotels or saloons with sophisticated gadgets. A special appreciation for them especially the ustads of body massage. They have extensive knowledge of the human anatomy and know all the pressure points of the body like an acupressure expert. They will make you lie on a mat and will apply their magical (as they claim) oil all over your body. After the massage you will feel so fresh that you can run a marathon.

The park is in itself a good resting and cool place away from the chaotic streets of Old Delhi. The main attraction of the park is the wrestling match that is held on every Sunday at the end of the park.
