A brief introduction to Delhi
A city awash in rich history, mouthwatering cuisine, and lively cultural festivals, there is no shortage of adventure for travellers who visit the bustling metropolis of Delhi.
Begin your trip by exploring the majestic temples and iconic landmarks situated throughout the city. Some of the most popular attractions include the almost 400-year-old Red Fort, Jama Masjid mosque, Qutub Minar, and India Gate. History enthusiasts will appreciate the many exhibits on show at the National Gandhi Museum and the National Museum.
Delhi’s breathtaking architecture is best experienced with a visit to the Baha’i Lotus Temple and Humayun’s Tomb, which was constructed in the 16th century. While here, we recommend taking a peaceful stroll through the verdant gardens that encompass the white marble and red sandstone mausoleum.
Food lovers will have plenty of local delicacies to sample as the city’s street food scene is vast and comprises a variety of must-try dishes. Be sure to head to Connaught Place Market to try parathas (flatbread), samosas, and kebabs while marvelling at the old colonial buildings in the surrounding vicinity.
Throughout the year, festivals and cultural celebrations are held in Delhi, including those of Diwali, Holi, and Lohri. These jubilant events are generally held in major areas within the city, including Dilli Haat Janakpuri.
Those looking to venture on a day trip should consider travelling to the awe-inspiring city of Agra in Uttar Pradesh. While here, we recommend visiting the world renowned Taj Mahal, which is one of the 7 wonders of the world and was built by the fifth Mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal in the 17th century. The city also boasts two more UNESCO World Heritage Sites - Agra Fort and Fatehpur Sikri - which are well worth a visit. From there, venture to Sadar Bazaar or Kinari Bazaar, which are both famous for their marble artefacts that can be purchased.
