'''Yamuna Vihar''' is an affluent neighbourhood in North East [[Delhi]]. It houses the zonal headquarters (north east) of the Directorate of Education, Delhi. Yamuna Vihar is near to [[Shahdara]], Maujpur and Bhajanpura. [[Kashmiri Gate (Delhi)|Kashmiri Gate]] [[Inter State Bus Terminals|ISBT]] is around 6 km, [[Anand Vihar]] around 7 km, [[Delhi University]] (north campus), 7 km and [[Connaught Place, New Delhi|Connaught Place]] around 20 min and 30 min drive respectively from Yamuna Vihar.

It comprises blocks B-1 to B-5 & C-1 to C-12. [[Bhajanpura]] is said to be the A Block of Yamuna Vihar (as per the locals). Each block has a market of its own apart from a central Vardhman Complex. It has all the basic amenities maintained to a sufficiently pleasing level to meet the demands of the residents. Children's playgrounds, parks and parking lots are present in each of its blocks.

Yamuna Vihar is a major educational hub for northeast Delhi. It has [[Bhim Rao Ambedkar College]] of''' Delhi University''', and many other institutions. [[Ramlila Maidan|Ram Lila Ground]] (Hanuman Vatika) and Bhagat Singh Park attract people not only from Yamuna Vihar but also from nearby colonies during the Dussehra festival celebrations. Rath Wala Mandir, Arya Samaj Mandir, Jain Mandir, Siddarth Temple and Shri Peepleshwar Mahadev Mandir (Sai Temple) are major temples for the residents. Apart from this a [[Gurudwara]], a [[Mosque]] and many other temples add to the religious aspect of the colony. Aggarwal Dharamshala, Brahmin samaj Dharamshala and community centers are also there.

There are many parks in Yamuna Vihar. Some are dedicated to the usage of women (e.g. Mahila Park) and the elderly. These parks make Yamuna Vihar green and beautiful. There is proper Police patrolling and monitoring in the area.

Amongst its nearby areas, Yamuna Vihar is the only well-planned locality. The state government built the [[Signature Bridge]], which is only at a distance of {{convert|4|km|mi|abbr=on}}, to improve transportation. The upcoming Delhi Metro project will also improve transport links.

In 2020 Yamuna Vihar was also affected by the [[2020 Delhi riots|delhi riots]].
