Day 2 Delhi:
After breakfast proceed for a day sightseeing tour of the city.
Start with the sightseeing of Old Delhi. The tour will begin with a visit
to Raj Ghat, a simple memorial to Mahatma Gandhi; drive past the Red Fort
continuing to the Jama Masjid by bicycle rickshaws, one of Asia's largest
mosques. The magnificent Red Fort, overlooking the river Jamuna was built
during the years 1638 - 48 when the Moghul Empire was at its peak. The
tour continues to Jama Masjid, one of Asia's largest mosques and which
is viewed from the outside.
People stream in and out of the mosque continuously and the presence of
a nearby bazaar means that the area is rarely quiet.
Enjoy the rickshaw ride at Old Delhi.
After visiting Old Delhi, you will be driven to New Delhi, which reflects
the legacy the British left behind. The division between New and Old Delhi
is the division between the capitals of the British and the Mughals respectively.
The division in the walled city and New Delhi also marks the division
in the life-styles. The walled city is all tradition where one will be
able to glean a past life-style in all its facets, colours and spells.
New Delhi in contrast, is a city trying to live up to the best of 21st
century standards.
Imperial Delhi will include the Qutub Minar, the tallest stone tower in
India. The tour also includes a drive past the imposing India Gate, the
Parliament building and the Rastrapathi Bhawan, the President's residence.
Spend night at Delhi.
