Delhi  

One of the oldest cities in the world, Delhi has been the center of political activity since time immemorial. The city has witnessed the formation and destruction several times in the course of history. Ruled by several dynasties, it has always attracted emperors, conquerors and the poor alike. Delhi bears complexities, contradictions, beauty and dynamism - where the past coexists with the present. Over thousand years, it has wooed rulers, fascinated plunderers, and tried historians with details. Today, even as Delhi preserves an enviable heritage, it is city always on the move. Delhi remains the center of power, starting with royal power to colonial power and finally the seat of bureaucratic power. Today it’s emerging as a significant center for corporate power too. However, the most absorbing aspect of this city is its cosmopolitan nature.  

Delhi is an international metropolitan with exceptional tourist spots, recreational facilities, and a past that goes back to antiquity. A notable feature of the city is the coverage of greenery all over. Delhi is popular among visitors looking for items of handicrafts from all over the country. Delhi offers numerous interesting places and attractions for the visitor, making it difficult to decide where to begin from. In Old Delhi, mosques, forts, and other monuments belonging to the Sultan and the Mughal can be seen all over.

Delhi, capital city of the Federal Republic of India. It is one of India's fastest growing cities. It has sprawled over the West Bank of the river Yamuna, straddling the river. The city has two distinct parts, Old Delhi & New Delhi. Delhi is the second most widely used entry point into 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 Qutub Minar -can be seen. Here, museums, art galleries and cultural centers attract the finest exhibitions.

Delhi blends an historic past and a vibrant present. Delhi has some of the finest museums in the country. New Delhi was proclaimed the capital of India by the British architect Sir Edwin Lutyens (1869-1944) & is tree-lined & spacious.  Legend has it that the Pandavas, the august heroes of the epic Mahabharata, originally founded Delhi, then called Indraprastha, around 1200 B.C. Present day Delhi is built around the ruins of seven ancient cities.
