Welcome To Delhi
New Delhi, the capital and the third largest city of India is a fusion of the
ancient and the modern. Standing along the West End of Gangetic Plain,
the capital city, Delhi, unwinds a picture rich with culture, architecture
and human diversity, deep in history, monuments, museums, galleries,
gardens and exotic shows. Comprising of two contrasting yet harmonious
parts, the Old Delhi and New Delhi, the city is a travel hub of Northern
India.
Narrating the city's Mughal past, Old Delhi, takes you through
the labyrinthine streets passing through formidable mosques, monuments
and forts. You will also discover lively and colorful bazaars that boast
to cater all sorts of good and items at mind-blowing prices amidst a
barely controlled chaotic ambience. The imperial city of New Delhi displays
the finely curved architecture of British Raj.
It generates a mesmerizing charm reflecting well-composed
and spacious streets under the shade of beautifully lined avenues of
trees and tall and imposing government buildings.
There is an amazing range of activity from cultural walks,
talks, theatre productions and art exhibitions to films by Indian and
foreign directors. One can find an option at the Habitat World at Lodhi
Road as well as Siri Fort at Khel Gaon.
