A fascinating piece of history will be learnt in this segment of the tour. "The ninth Sikh Guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur was beheaded here on 11 November 1675 on the order of Aurangzeb. Before his body could be quartered and exposed to public view, it was stolen under the cover of darkness by one of his disciples, Lakhi Shah Vanjara, who then burnt his house to cremate the Guru's body. This place is marked by another gurdwara, Gurdwara Rakab Ganj Sahib."

About New Delhi

New Delhi associe les avenues solennelles de la capitale aux bazars et monuments moghols du Vieux Delhi, entre empires superposés et grande cuisine.

La capitale planifiée s'organise autour d'une grande avenue cérémonielle qui court de l'India Gate au Rashtrapati Bhavan, le palais présidentiel. Non loin, le tombeau d'Humayun, précurseur du Taj Mahal, repose dans des jardins à la française, et le Qutub Minar, un minaret de grès imposant, s'élève au sud. Le temple du Lotus et le vaste complexe d'Akshardham ajoutent de saisissants monuments modernes.
