A city of contrasts, forever evolving
Delhi, the capital of India, is a city with a rich history dating back to the 6th century BCE. Founded by Tomara Rajput ruler Anangpal Tomar in 1052, Delhi has been ruled by various dynasties, including the Mughals and the British, leaving behind a treasure trove of architectural and cultural heritage. From the stunning Qutub Minar to the majestic Humayun's Tomb, Delhi is a city that seamlessly blends the old with the new. The bustling streets of Old Delhi, with their narrow alleys and vibrant markets, are a testament to the city's enduring energy. As you explore Delhi, you'll discover a city that's both chaotic and beautiful, with a unique blend of tradition and modernity.
