New Delhi Tourism
India's
capital city,
Delhi is the second most widely used entry point in the
country, being on the route of most major airlines. It is well linked by rail,
air and road to all parts of the country. The remains of seven distinctive capital
cities - among them Shahjahanabad and Qutab Minar - can be seen.
Here, museums, art galleries and cultural centres attract the finest exhibitions
and performances from India and Abroad. Shopping encompasses virtually everything
that can be bought in the country. Hotels range from the deluxe to the more
modest. Most fascinating of all is the character of Delhi which varies from
13th century mausolea of the Lodi kings set in sprawling park to ultra modern
chrome and glass skyscrapers; and from imperial India's Parliament House and
the President's Palace to the never ending bustle of the walled city surrounding
Jama Masjid. Delhi also makes the ideal base for a series of short excursions
to neighboring places, all connected by road.
Delhi, the capital of India houses some of the magnificent monuments built from
12th century monuments built from 12th century onward - The Red Fort, Qutab
Minar, Humayun's Tomb, Jama Masjid, India Gate (War Memorial), Parliament House,
Presidents's House, Bahai Temple (The Lotus Temple) are worth a visit. Besides,
there are number of interesting museums. The most important ones are National
Museum - the premier museum of India, National Gallery of Modern Art, Rail Museum
and Gandhi Museum.
