Delhi City Guide
About Delhi:
Welcome to Delhi, the capital of India and a vibrant blend of old and new. Imagine two cities rolled into one: New Delhi, designed by British architects Sir Edwin Lutyens and Sir Herbert Baker, and Old Delhi, founded by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in 1639. This bustling metropolis is a cultural melting pot where history, food, and traditions collide at every corner.
Delhi has been the power seat for centuries, from the mighty Mughals to the British Raj. New Delhi's leafy avenues and grand government buildings stand in stark contrast to Old Delhi's chaotic markets and narrow, bustling streets.
