Witness the Heritage and Splendour of India on Delhi Tour (Part -2)

Next morning, I was all set to explore few other popular attractions of the city. Qutub Minar was the first one on my Delhi sightseeing that day. This huge structure was located in a peaceful ambiance and there I could also spot several other structures. This historic attraction still retains its old-world charm.

Qutub Minar

The famous Humayun's Tomb of Delhi was another part of my exploration. It is the first garden tomb in India and I found the architecture very impressive. The tour guide told me that it was built in 1570 by the emperor's widow, Haji Begum. With high arches and formal gardens or charbagh, the tomb is also listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After this wonderful experience, I was too excited to visit Lotus Temple in Delhi. Reason being, its flower-like shape always make me wonder that how can a temple lie within. It was the time to end my surprise and there I was at Lotus temple by Delhi metro. I got down at Kalkaji metro station and it was just on a walking distance. Based on my experience, I would recommend this popular tourist spot in Delhi. Its tranquil atmosphere, pleasant surroundings and majestic architecture will surely add delight to your Delhi tour.

I could also visit the Iskon temple and Birla temple on my travel to Delhi. Amazing architecture, pleasant ambiance and tranquil feeling that is all I could say after visiting these famous temples in Delhi.

On my trip to Delhi, I also spent my last few hours at Akshardham temple Delhi. It was easily accessible by Delhi metro. This majestic temple offers you the beautiful glimpses of Indian sculptures that will occupy your mind. I had to rush as the leisure time was over for me and next day I was to report at office.

My Delhi tour ended and I bid goodbye to Delhi but with a promise to come again to visit all the Delhi attractions that I missed on this trip. The moments I captured in my camera was making me feel delightful throughout my way back to home.

Delhi Tourism Comes with Hidden Surprises for Tourists (Part-1)

On concluding my business trip at Agra, I had two days in my hand when there nothing much to do. To make the most of my time, I planned to visit Delhi. This capital city of India unfolds its charm in mainly the two areas-the Old Delhi and the New Delhi. Delhi tourism is formed by its historical monuments, lush green gardens, happening shopping malls and much more.

Chandni Chowk Delhi

I was very much relaxed after my business trip as the task was already accomplished successfully and I was free to encash the time in hand. I contacted a good hotel at Karol Bagh and stayed there. At night while relaxing at hotel, I was busy in planning out the vacant time.

I started my Delhi sightseeing with RedFort. This majestic structure, known as the Red Fort or Lal Quila situates in old Delhi. Built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, this huge structure captivated my attention as long as I was there and even after I moved ahead.

Having heard a lot about Chandni Chowk in Delhi, I entered this area. Though I found it very congested yet a rickshaw ride helped me out. I tasted lip-smacking food in Parantha wali gali that made my visit to Chandni Chowk worthwhile. This area has so much to offer that you cannot do without shopping. Same happened to me; I shopped some beautiful traditional dresses and handicrafts from the market.

From there I headed towards another famous Delhi tourist attraction-Rajghat. That was a peaceful place where all I could witness was the memories of Mahatma Gandhi, the father of nation. I was so fascinated by the experience that I decided to visit the Gandhi Memorial Museum that lies nearby. It showcases the life cycle of the great soul through a movie.

Red Fort Delhi

India gate became the next attraction that I explore. By the time, I reach India Gate, it was evening and I could clearly see that it was an ideal picnic time for Delhiites. There were many people, came with families and all were enjoying different activities-playing games, boating or relishing ice-creams.

At night, I came back and enjoyed a delicious dinner at hotel and soon I was transported to the dreamland.
