A little About Delhi

India’s capital thrums with 1,000 years of history. Start at Shahjahanabad (Old Delhi), where the Red Fort’s sandstone walls tower over Chandni Chowk’s jumble of spice stalls and paratha shops. Contrast this with New Delhi’s wide boulevards, leading to Humayun’s Tomb (a Taj Mahal prototype) and the Baha’i Lotus Temple’s serene petals. By night, hit Hauz Khas Village’s indie galleries or sip cocktails at Aer. Don’t miss the Qutub Festival’s Sufi concerts or winter pop-ups in Dhan Mill Compound. Delhi rewards those who embrace its beautiful chaos.
