Delhi in India
Delhi is Cosmopolitan city and Capital of India. It is the third largest city. Delhi is main starting point for North India.It is divided into two parts Old Delhi & New Delhi. The hub of the metropolis is Central New Delhi, an orderly plan of wide roads lined with sturdy colonial buildings which was established soon after the imperial capital of British India moved here in 1911.
Delhi becomes more manageable as you start to appreciate that geographically as well as historically it consist of several distinct cities if anything, Many of the city’s hotels are here, concentrated amid the columned facades of Connaught Place, and just north of Old Delhi, Shah Jahan’s seventeenth-century Capital (shajahanabad), lies 2 km or so further north.
This is Delhi at its most intessentially Indian, where the traditional lifestyle of its predominantly Muslim population has changed little over two hundred years.
