💡 About Delhi

Delhi, the sprawling capital of India, is a city of staggering scale and depth where over a thousand years of empires have left their mark — from the Mughal splendour of Old Delhi to the wide colonial avenues of New Delhi and the glass towers of the modern metropolis.

Old Delhi is a whirl of the senses: the vast Red Fort, the towering Jama Masjid mosque, and the frenetic bazaars of Chandni Chowk packed with rickshaws, spices and street food. New Delhi offers grand government buildings and the towering Qutub Minar.

Home to over 30 million people in its greater area, Delhi is chaotic, overwhelming and endlessly fascinating — a place where ancient tombs sit beside gleaming metro lines. It is the historic and political heart of the world's most populous nation.
