 Red Fort



The Red Fort, the most well-known landmark in Delhi, serves as a potent reminder of Mughal-era India and a representation of India's battle for independence. When Shah Jahan, the fifth Mughal emperor, chose to move his capital from Agra to Delhi in 1638, he built it.

Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple



The Hindu temple and spiritual-cultural complex Swaminarayan Akshardham is not far from Noida's boundary. The complex, also known as Akshardham Temple, exhibits centuries' worth of conventional and contemporary Hindu culture, spirituality, and architecture. You can also watch the light and sound show that starts in the evening after sunset.


India Gate



India Gate, a soaring archway in the heart of New Delhi, serves as a war monument in honour of the Indian troops who gave their lives in World War I while serving with the British Army. Beautifully illuminated at night and a favourite area to spend a cosy summer evening are the gardens that border its promenade. A delightful Children's Park is also available, which is huge for youngsters.

1.      Lodhi Garden



Lady Willingdon Park was the previous name of Lodhi Garden, which changed after India won its independence from the British. The graves of Sayyid ruler Mohammed Shah and Lodhi king Sikandar Lodhi are in the lush Lodhi Garden, which is close to the Safdarjung mausoleum and Khan Market.

 Qutab Minar



An astonishing example of early Indo-Islamic construction is QutabMinar, one of the highest brick minarets in the world. Although constructed in 1193, its purpose is still unknown. Others claim that it was used to summon the faithful to prayer. Some think it was built to symbolize victory and the start of Muslim rule in India.


 Lotus Temple



The National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá's of India owns and is the legal owner of this Bahá' house of worship, which was established for public worship in 1986. The temple’s shape has symbolic and inter-religious significance because the lotus is often associated with the Hindu goddess Lakshmi.

 Connaught Place


The enormous circular market was the biggest of its type in India when it first opened. The horseshoe-shaped market, according to the British, would bring good fortune to both retailers and customers.
