Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    We had a lovely wander around here. Yes as other reviews have said, you will pay a much higher price as a foreigner but that's the same as all of the other places we've been to so far. Traffic here can be bad so would consider using the metro from central Delhi and then picking up a ride.

    Didn't find there was too much hassle at the gate as we were going in, much worse at the fort

    Worth a quick stop for sure to look, and take a photograph. An archway standing as a tribute to the brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, India Gate is one of the landmarks of Delhi.

    The front gate is the most impressive part of this fort. The museums inside are ok. Teh baoli is nice, not the best you'll see in India. There are a few other buildings to see from the outside. Nice place overall

    Connaught Place is officially known as Rajiv Chowk after renaming in 1995, named after the Late Prime Minister of India Mr. Rajiv Gandhi. Commonly it is called CP. It is not exaggerated if we call it Heart of New Delhi. It is one of the main tourist centre, a main financial, commercial and business centre in Delhi. It is a prestige to have office in Connaught Place. There are showrooms of all major small and big brands, which attracts locals also for shopping. There are two circles, inner and outer with heritage buildings having shops, showrooms, lots of restaurants serving multiple and specific cuisines, fast food chains, snacks shops, tea and coffee shops, Multiplexes, road side hawkers, etc. was developed by Englishmen way back in 1933. The whole area and surroundings including Janpath, Rajpath, India Gate, Sansad Bhawan, Rashtrapati Bhawan, Lutyens' Delhi is well designed and beautifully constructed. Several roads emerge from Connaught Place in all directions going to different parts of the city. We were there to Shop wedding dresses and shoes etc. One can reach here by Metro train very easily. One can by handicrafts, local dresses of any of Indian States from State Emporiums showrooms situated near Shiwaji Stadium. Largest Khadi Bhawan is quite popular shopping destination in CP. We had South Indian food in Naivedyam Restaurant. One can enjoy street artist’s performances in the evenings.

    The Rajpath is roughly the area between the Rashtrapati Bhavan (the official residence of the President of India) and India gate. The area is popular, but largely devoid of buildings and there’s no shortage of police and soldiers for security reasons. Connecting the aforementioned landmarks is a long, long road also known as Kingsway when it served as the ceremonial path. While the area isn’t all that exciting, the landmarks here including India Gate are worth seeing.

    We learned from our guidebook that this complex, not far from the Humayun mausoleum, was worth visiting. So, after the visit to that mausoleum, we got transported to it by a motorickshaw.
    This is a high place for Muslim worship in present-day India.
    Dargah means mausoleum. Nizamuddin (full name: Khwaja Nizamuddin Auliya, 1238-1325) is a Sufi saint, belonging to the " Chishti" order. The order originated in present-day Afghanistan and is one of the four main orders of the sect of Sufi mystical "monks". Within the Chishti order, I learned that Nizamuddin is the founder of a particular branch, called precisely "Chishti Nizami".
    The surrounding neighborhood was named after him, and also the nearby Hazrat Nizamuddin station, which is today one of the three main railway stations in Delhi.
    Here the Nizamuddin shrine stands (which, however, is much later than him; as far as I read it dates back to 1562), together with other buildings, which host other shrines, shops related to his cult, and also a small baoli (stepwell).
    To get to the mausoleum, from the spot of Lodhi Road where our motorickshaw left us, we walked a narrow, picturesque and crowded pedestrian street, lined with shops of all kinds. These shops are evidently favored by the continuous influx of shrine worshippers. After passing through an entrance arch, the shops also continue inside, further narrow and winding. Finally, after skirting the baoli, you reach the very crowded area where the shrine stands, under a large, highly decorated marble canopy surmounted by an onion-shaped dome.
    No less evocative are other shrines that flank the courtyard where the main one stands.
    Behind an offer, we received our tray of rose petals, with which to sprinkle the shrine.
    The whole is extremely picturesque. And it certainly would have been even more so, if we had stayed until sunset, when, apparently, the Sufis sing poignant religious hymns. But it was not in our program to dwell so much.
    As far as we could understand, after the Great Mosque this is the most evocative Islamic place of worship in Delhi.

    We reached Vijay Chowk late evening and walk from Krishi Bhawan to Vijay Chowk to see the newly developed Kartavaya Path and new Parliament House. It was slightly cool in the evening with cool breeze around. Even though we were tired through the day, but rejuvenate after walking few hundred meters. The South Block, the North Block and the Parliament House buildings were well illuminated giving great looks. A walk there with family or with friends can be remberwd for years to come

    Jhandewalan temple is located near Karol Bagh in Delhi. It is a very well organized temple complex. It is a couple of minute of walk from the main road and easily accessible for senior citizens also. Jai mata di.

    Situated at the heart of Delhi, very well maintained, peaceful and has ample space for parking. It is less crowded than Gurudwara Bangla Sahib.

    Its near the India Gate. As an Indian we must visit this. You will find the names of soldiers sacrifice their lives in different battels. Some important events are also explained with the help of 3D paintings on the walls.

    This fascinating complex contains remains of the first mosque built in India going back to around 1200 CE. The complex of buildings, towers, minarets, and some crumbling ruins make for a great history lesson and photographic adventure. The site can be very crowded but is quite large and you can wander peacefully. We had a guide who explained the significance of the various sites and left time then to photograph the intriguing ruins. Do not miss the famous Iron Pillar originally built around 400CE and has a huge amount of metallurgical history. There is an entry fee but the whole trip, a short distance from the centre of Delhi, is well worth it

    Chandani Chowk in Delhi is India in a microcosm, where one can see people of different religions and backgrounds living together. Among the many attractions of this famous street, which extends from the Red Fort to the Fatehpuri Mosque is the Digambar Jain Temple.

    Located opposite the road from the Red Fort, the Digambar Jain temple is also called the Lal temple owing to its red colour. The temple is a place of worship for the Jain community, but others too can visit during its opening hours. Of special note is the bird hospital housed in the temple, where numerous birds, who were injured or unwell, are treated and nursed back to health.
