10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in New Delhi That You Shouldn't Miss
New Delhi is all at once chaotic and calm, a complicated city where cows often wander the shanty-lined streets. The 17th century Red Fort is a mass of domes and turrets, while Chandni Chowk is an exercise in friendly haggling. Jantar Mantar features larger-than-life sundials and astronomical instruments that are still used to predict the weather. Travelers and locals flock to the India Gate, the national monument of India that honors the soldiers who died in World War I and the Third Afghan War.

Rajpath runs from Rashtrapati Bhawan (President House) through Vijay Chowk to India Gate, around 3km long. The place is the Political Power Centre where President of India residence & office , Prime Minister Office, North & South Block, Parliament House and most of the other Ministries has offices. You can not travel the whole length by car. The best way is to walk in the evening. Start from India Gate before sunset and end at Raisina Hill (President Houseand) end after dark with the view of Historic Building illuminated with colourful LED lights. On the way one can have snacks, Ice Creams, Soft Drinks etc., one can enjoy boating in the canals along the road, relax in parks on both side of Rajpath. The Republic Day Ceremony is held here on 26th January every year, the event is must watch for everyone if in New Delhi at that time. One must visit National War Memorial, India Gate and Amar Jawan Jyoti before sunset. Its a sense of national pride once you are here.

Very clean and organized temple complex. Well sanitised with proper social distancing being maintained. Prasad and Gangotri water available for consumption. There's a very nice tea stall in the opposite flank of the road, run by two brothers. The tea tastes good and the stall owners are very courteous. When we finished having tea, an acquaintance of the stall owner got some more prasad after evening Aarti. The owner happily shared it with us. Do visit if you're in paharganj/Karol Bagh area.

The Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque is said to be the first Muslim Mosque in India after the defeat of the Hindu rulers. The architecture is very unique to this Mosque. In one of the photos attached, you can see a structure with several rows of columns - all of which have a different ornate hand carved design - nice! The Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque is located in an area known as the Qutub Minar Complex which consists of several interesting and important historical structures including the Qutub Minar tower, Kahalji Tomb and other structures.

The stepwells of Delhi have been made famous by the Bollywood movies shot there, the most famous of which was Rang de Basanti. Hidden within the Mehrauli Archaeological Park is this gem of a stepwell that is absolutely free from crowds. One can get really cool pictures here without any photobombers. The beautiful arches on the main level are a superb backdrop for pictures with a great play of light and shadows. The ASI is doing a superb restoration work and apart from the stagnant water, one can really enjoy the architectural beauty of the place. While going into the lower levels reaching to the water seem inadvisable due to the narrow steps in the dark littered with garbage, one must climb to the upper levels for the ornamented tombs and prayer areas. The view from the upper level shows the old and new juxtaposed in Delhi.
