by schlumpf Is on the streets that you will start to feel the real smell of India, and Old Delhi is the greatest place where to start!. The streets are simply black, durty, fullfilled of people and cowes wherever, people that calls you billion times, altough you do not watch them...children that simply walk up and down to those streets, chai seller on the streets, biri smokers on the streets.... This is India... All is done on the street, and if you do not watch it, or at least try to understand it, I guess you are losing something on the way!. Leave a Comment

 Paharganj, Main bazaar by Crift This is the Delhi you find on the streets, in the bazaars, in the interaction with its people. You can't say "I have been there..." for any place if you haven't chosen to interact with the people. Paharganj's Main Bazaar, touristy but still very real in its setting is a good starting point. The presence of other tourists around makes you feel more comfortable. Connaught place is the city center, here one can find all the shops one needs. Be it a continental food restaurant, an espresso cafe, an English bookshop, everything. Dilli Haat (i am not so sure about the spelling) is also a great place to spend a day. It combines handicrafts and food from different parts of India. Chandni Chowk is another great bazaar. In its "dodgy" looking, convoluted alleys you might get lost, you might think "I am crazy to be here" but in the end you will be rewarded, I am sure. If you are a good looking woman, chances are that you are gonna get your behind pinched more than once! Leave a Comment

 Red Fort gardens, Delhi by Crift You can't leave Delhi without paying tribute to its great sights, right? Of course not, especially since most of them offer a great escape from the noise, the pollution and the crowds. India Gate, the symbol of india's independence. Situated in the center of a large, open green park and facing the presidential palace is like Paris' Arc du Triomph. Humayun's Tomb, the mughal king's resting place. Surrounded by magnificent and peaceful gardens, the only thing that breaks the quiet is the sound of the crows and the eagles flying above. Red Fort, a theater of the old glory and the majestic parades. Try to imagine this place when it was still inhabited by powerful maharajas and their mighty elephants. Enjoy the peace and quiet of the gardens. And lot more... Leave a Comment

 The Old Delhi by SirRichard Delhi has roughly 2 main areas: The Old core of the city, called Old Delhi, in the north, is the dedalus of narrow streets around the Red Fort and the Jami Masjid mosque. The new part of the city is crossed by huge ordered avenues and big monuments and government buildings. This area around Connaught Place and the Gate of India is called New Delhi. Leave a Comment

by schlumpf In the opposite of the streets of Old Delhi, very small and crowded, Connaught Palace is the touristic and shopping center in New Delhi, with big streets, not so crowded and with less traffic and pollusion. You will immediately detect the difference beetween the two parts of the city. Leave a Comment

Even if you’re not staying in Pahar Ganj (Main Bazaar), its well worth walking down here from New Delhi Station as you get a taste of Delhi life in just one street. Cows walk around and do what cows do, people rush around pushing carts of goods, rickshaws cycle down the road, tourists shop and wander around whilst the normal chaos of everyday Delhi going’s on continues.

 Snap from the past... Shows North- South block by husain, 4 more photos Edwin Lutyens and Sir Herbert Baker were assigned the task of constructing a new Delhi as Britain's new imperial capital of India. The Jewel in the Empire's crown... Their main objective was to produce an architecture that borrowed from local traditions and yet produced a statement of colonial power. The new city was designed around the central line which ran through the middle of the Raj Path from the gates of Rashtrapati Bhawan to India Gate. Leave a Comment

First I thought to discover Delhi by myself. Deffinitly a bad idea for me. I booked a city tour by bus for 70 INR. Only one problem, the government of India wanted all the busses to change from diesel to fuel so no bus on this day. I rebooked taking a car for 600 INR and so it was possible to see exactly what I wanted to see and not all the touristic places. Leave a Comment

by j-san The road-rules... Delhi roads are test of your nerves! Would never ever dream of driving here, though after a week, I did sort of start to relax sort-of (a little!) and gasp somewhat less as we were almost swerved into for the 1000th time!!! This was a unique experience indeed. Here are those cows on the road you have heard about before probably. Actually not as common a sight as I expected. Wished I had taken some pics when we drove through one neighbourhood that was full of them!! Next time. Leave a Comment
