Delhi Travel Guide
|
The national capital city is the initiating
point for many tourist places in India. New
Delhi offers various sites to be visited in
and around the city. While on tour to New
Delhi
you can visit the popular historical sites
situated in the city, which attract a large
number of tourists every year. We at New
Delhi Hub offer you tours for local
sightseeing in Delhi; these include some of
the famous sites of Delhi as under:
India Gate: India Gate is one of the
most popular tourist attractions in Delhi.
The impressive colonial architecture of
India Gate is a symbol of modern Delhi. The
beautiful stone arch was built by the
British in honor of Indian soldiers killed
in World War I. Here you will also find the
'Amar Javan Jyoti', which is a permanent
flame in honor of the Indian soldiers who
died in wars since 1918.
Red Fort: The Red Fort is one of the
most spectacular pieces of Mughal
architecture in Delhi. Between 1638 and 1648
Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, built this fort
having walls extending up to 2kms in length
with the height varying from 18 mts to 33
mts. This fort situated in Old Delhi is a
reminder of the magnificent power and pomp
of the Mughal emperors. The red sandstone
walls of the massive Red Fort rise 33m were
designed to keep out invaders, but today
they mainly keep out the noise and confusion
of the city, making the fort and its gardens
and pavilions a peaceful haven from the
surrounding chaos. The fort's main gate, the
Lahore Gate, is one of the emotional and
symbolic focal points of the modern Indian
nation.
Qutab Minar: It is the highest tower
in India, built in red and buff sandstone.
The monument covers an area of 14.32m in
diameter at the base and about 2.75m on the
top with a height of 72.5m. In 1199 A.D.
Qutb-u'd-Din Aibak laid the foundation of
Qutab Minar for the use of Mu'azzin. He
built the first storey, later three more
storeys were added by his successor and
son-in-law, Shamsu'd-Din Iltutmish. The
tower symbolizes Islamic rule of the city.
The first three storeys are made of red
sandstone, the fourth and fifth storeys of
marble and sandstone.
Tour to Jama Masjid
Humayun's Tomb: Humayun's wife,
Hamida Begum, built this monument in Delhi
in the year 1556. The tomb is set on a
platform amidst a garden and is believed to
have influenced the design of the Taj Mahal.
The structure of the tomb is as magnificent
as the Taj Mahal in Agra. The splendor of
this grand monument becomes overpowering on
entering through the lofty double storied
gateway. The fountains with simple yet
highly developed engineering skills enhance
the beauty of the garden.
Jama Masjid: Jama Masjid is the
largest mosque in India where thousands of
Muslims offer prayers every day. The mosque
was built in 1656,with the flight of stairs
and large courtyard, which are marvels of
architecture. It has three gateways, four
angle towers, and two minarets standing 40
meters high and constructed of alternating
vertical strips of red sandstone and white
marble. Broad flights of steps lead up to
the imposing gateways.
Old Fort: the ruins of the fort are
located on a small hill which once stood on
the banks of the river Yamuna. Legend has it
that the fort marked the site of
Indraprastha, the magnificent capital of the
Pandavas, though Sher Shah Suri carried out
the construction sometime between 1538 to
1545 AD. The structure houses a mosque,
which has a double storied octagonal tower.
It is said that the Mughal king Humayun fell
from the tower and died. At the foot of the
hill is a lake where the Delhi Tourism has
arrangements for boating.

Bhavan or the President's House is the
official residence of the President of
India. The Bhavan has 340 rooms and is

architectural styles. The Bhavan comprises

Room, the
State Dining Room, and private chambers. The
Mughal Gardens within the complex are a
treat for the eyes and are open to public
during certain periods of the year.
