Having both restless and tranquil attributes, the capital has become a complex municipal of India with cows wandering around the streets.  The Red Fort dated back to 17th century is a collection of turrets and domes.  On the other side, Chandni Chowk is an active market offering enthusiastic shopping experience.  Jantar Mantar contains unusually large sundials.  The astronomical instruments are still in use currently for weather prediction.  The India Gate is a popular attraction for travelers.  It is the national monument of India built to honor the soldiers who lost their lives in the Third Afghan War and World War I.

About New Delhi – The Capital City of India
By Steily William

Ask people about New Delhi and you will get two different types of response – of visitors to the city and non-visitors. While visitors will narrate their myriad experiences, non-visitors will bank upon written facts and visuals to make a story. Nonetheless, one answer is certainly common for all, i.e. the capital city of India. The city is a hub of leisure, business, corporate, educational, and socio-cultural activities; people from all parts of the country stay here to earn a livelihood. An interesting fact about New Delhi is the emergence of cities around it, what is now termed in combination as the Delhi and NCR region.

If you have visited Delhi a decade ago, you will not find the same ambience now. Development took place at a rapid pace. To know about New Delhi in detail before you plan to visit here, do go online and collect as much information as you could. Right from hotels, sight seeing spots to restaurants in Delhi and more, you will come across all details on web. And obviously without shopping in New Delhi, you won’t go back home.

You will come across comprehensive information about the centres of shopping in New Delhi from where you can not only get some good bargains but also carry home souvenirs that will only gear you up again and again to visit the capital city. Sarojini Market, Chandni Chowk, Khan Market, Lajpat Nagar, GK II market, Jan Path are the key centres of shopping in New Delhi.

There can be no better pleasure than appeasing your appetite with your favorite dishes away from your home. You will come across hundreds of restaurants in New Delhi. Before you step in one of these, consider your preferences first, such as whether you want to have Chinese food or North Indian cuisine or South Indian food or any other international cuisine. Well most tourists prefer to have food specific to the city; it is Punjabi food that is the most demanded. And there is no dearth of restaurants in New Delhi serving Punjabi food.
