Delhi

Delhi, the capital of India, is one of the most ancient cities in the world. It has cherished so many cultures and witnessed many human and inhuman ups and downs for a long time, at least 5000 years. As a metropolitan city, Delhi is like a baby if the huge history of Delhi should be taken in consideration. Delhi is well known for its variety of foods, vibrant culture, glorious history and present diversity. This beautiful city is situated in north India and located on the banks of river Yamuna. Its strategic location, fertile soil, greenery around the city decorated with natural habitat of our national bird peacock, rich traditional values and diverse culture attract not only the people of different states of our country but also the tourists from all parts of the world.
Introduction:

Delhi can be introduced in three prominent blends- Old Delhi, New Delhi and the NCR i.e. National Capital Region. Old Delhi has its historical aspects having the taste of ancient monuments, forts, tombs, temples, palaces and traditional food restaurants, New Delhi is the capital city of India and the centre of Union Government, Parliament of India, numerous administrative offices, federal government offices, Supreme Court and the residences of honorable President and Prime-minister. NCR includes Noida, Greater Noida, Guru-gram, Faridabad and Ghaziabad, administered by UP, Haryana and Union governments. The journey of Delhi from its identity as “the land of snake charmers” to the “world’s eighth largest metropolitan city” is quite interesting. Historians give the credit of this wonderful journey to King Anangpal Tomer. Now these days New Delhi exhibits well planned landscapes, large green acres of land, beautiful parks and gardens, multiplexes, malls, spacious and well maintained roads, metros, national and international airports, five star and three star hotels, established business centers, well planned housing complexes, well organized residential colonies, beautiful temples with ultra modern facilities etc. but in contrast Old Delhi still emits the old charm and aura of a bygone era of many dynastic symbols, monuments, old style markets, cuisines, forts and narrow twisted lanes. Most of tourist attractions are here in Old Delhi but few are in New Delhi also.
