Delhi

Delhi is India's capital and one of South Asia's most historically layered cities, combining Mughal monuments, British-era New Delhi and fast-growing modern districts. As the seat of national government, it anchors the wider National Capital Region and serves as a major gateway for both leisure and business travellers.

The city's past is visible across its landscape, from the Red Fort, Jama Masjid and Humayun's Tomb to Qutub Minar, all reflecting centuries of sultanate and Mughal rule. New Delhi's Lutyens-designed avenues, India Gate and Rashtrapati Bhavan represent the imperial capital planned in the early 20th century, while contemporary landmarks and metro infrastructure show the city's rapid modern expansion.

Old Delhi's Chandni Chowk offers crowded bazaars, street food and heritage lanes, while central Connaught Place is a commercial and transport hub. South Delhi neighbourhoods such as Hauz Khas, Greater Kailash and Mehrauli mix historic tombs, galleries, cafés and shopping, and New Delhi holds major museums, government buildings and diplomatic enclaves.

Delhi is also a centre for business, conferences, trade fairs and international events, hosting summits such as the G20 in 2023 and large exhibitions at Pragati Maidan. Its food culture spans Mughlai classics, North Indian thalis and regional Indian cuisines, alongside a growing restaurant, café and nightlife scene.

Whether visiting for monuments, markets, government and corporate meetings or onward journeys to Agra and Rajasthan, Delhi offers a dense, energetic mix of heritage and modern urban life.
