Delhi:
Delhi, the capital of India provides a unique experience to witness old and new at one place. Red Fort, a huge structure in Redstone was built by Mughal emperor Shahjahan and also housed the Mughal garrison. Jama Masjid is a beautiful expression of Mughal architecture. Near to it is Delhi’s iconic market-Chandani Chauk, which is as old as Red fort always bustling with people and famous for typical old Delhi eateries. As we move ahead towards New Delhi, we witness wide roads and grand govt buildings reminding us of colonial impressions and one of them is India Gate, a memorial to the soldiers who died in world war-1 and 1971 war. Another grand specimen of European architecture is Rashtrapati Bhavan the official residence of the president of India; formerly known as Viceroy’s House with huge rooms and beautiful gardens surrounding it. Finally we pay our homage to father of our nation-Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat.
