About Nova Deli

Nova Deli junta as avenidas imponentes da capital indiana aos bazares e monumentos mogóis da Velha Deli: impérios sobrepostos e grande gastronomia.

A capital planeada organiza-se em torno de uma grande avenida cerimonial que vai da India Gate ao Rashtrapati Bhavan, o palácio presidencial. Perto, o Túmulo de Humayun, precursor do Taj Mahal, assenta em jardins formais, e o Qutb Minar, um imponente minarete de arenito, ergue-se a sul. O Templo de Lótus e o vasto complexo de Akshardham acrescentam marcos modernos impressionantes.
