For sometime during the reign of Mughal emperors Akbar and Jehangir the capital of India was at Fatehpur Sikri near Agra. When Mughal emperor Shah Jehan came to power, he built the seventh city of Delhi and named it as Shahjehanbad. This is the old Delhi area of Delhi including within its ambit the Red Fort, Chandni Chowk and all the several gates such as Kashmiri Gate, Delhi Gate, Turkman Gate and Ajmeri Gate.

Packing List
by sandravdp
Bring a backpack when you want to go sightseeing and when you want to see more of India. Bring a suitcase when you do a business or luxurytravel. Bring clothes that are light, but have long sleeves. Bring a sweather too, because the evenings can be cold. Take a good pair of slippers and walking shoes with you. Bring along suncream, anti mosquito cream, mosquitonet (when you stay at very cheap hotels or hostels the mosquitos may get in your room) Film for your camera is available, but watch the expire dates carefully. You better get your film developed at home, though there are some quality stores to be found.
