About New Delhi

New Delhi förenar Indiens ståtliga huvudstadsavenyer med Gamla Delhis basarer och mogulmonument, en stad av imperier och fantastisk mat.

Den planerade huvudstaden utgår från en stor ceremoniell allé som löper från Indiaporten till Rashtrapati Bhavan, presidentpalatset. I närheten ligger Humayuns grav, en föregångare till Taj Mahal, i formella trädgårdar, och i söder reser sig Qutub Minar, en skyhög minaret av sandsten. Lotustemplet och det väldiga Akshardham-komplexet är slående moderna landmärken.
