Delhi

This is New Delhi for you. Flyovers are mushrooming all across the city, the Delhi Metro is setting a new pace of life for commuters. Swanky lounge bars cast their spell late into the night, restaurants offer cuisines from around the world, and a constant parade of fashions… the signs of Delhi turning cosmopolitan.

But the city continues to exert its traditional charm. The pull of history is as strong as evidenced by the medieval monuments that strew its landscape, besides the British legacy of Lutyen’s Delhi. Old Delhi (Shahjahanabad) is a maze of narrow serpentine lanes lined with shops dealing in antiques, aromatic spices and jewellery, amidst vendors who peddle wholesale paper, used car parts and almost anything imaginable. Chandni Chowk is the avenue that leads into the heart of this bazaar-o-dream world. The Jama Masjid, India’s largest mosque, is a walk away as are Fatehpuri Masjid, Town Hall, and several other majestic structures. 

A cultural and intellectual hub, Delhi has a lot to offer. Besides many historical monuments that dot the city, there are a number of museums that make for an interesting visit. The art scene in Delhi has evolved over the last couple of years. The historic National Gallery of Modern Art near India Gate is a must visit and houses a great collection. A number of other art galleries, chiefly located in South Delhi, may be visited for affordable contemporary art..
