With McDonalds, KFC and Pizza Hut on its turf, the signs of modernity are palpable and seemingly taking over Delhi. Today, mosques, forts, and other monuments that dot the spacious Delhi landscape -- like precious jewels, silently speak the stateliness of the Old Delhi.
Travelers, ready to wade through the equally eager mob of tourists will heave a sigh of relief knowing that these traditional attractions are well plotted in any consulates map of Delhi.
Past the lines of many pompous government buildings and embassies, the majestic Red Fort beckons in the near distance, enveloping even in its grandeur.
A treat for any history buff is the Rashtrapati Bhawan, the one-time imperial residence of the British viceroys. |
