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.

Wonderful and peaceful place to visit! To visit, leave your shoes with any of the stores outside the entrance. You may need to buy a plate of flowers/offerings for 50-100 rupees. The Dargah has Sufi music around 8pm every night except Thursdays. Sit on the ground and enjoy in peace.

Emperor Shah Jahan, who also built the Taj Mahal, commissioned this mosque in 1644. It remains the largest mosque in India.
The Jama Masjid Mosque is one of the largest Mosques in India and it is a beautifully constructed Mosque. According to Wikipedia it was built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan with a completion date of 1656. This same Emperor was also responsible for the construction of the Red Fort in Old Delhi and the Taj Mahal in Agra. The Jama Masjid Mosque is a must see place while in New Delhi because of its elegant and stunning architecture - it is a very popular tourist attraction. To get a decent photo of the main mosque structure, you would have to stand near the middle of the large courtyard area because of the huge size of the building and the very tall pillars. A visit to New Delhi would not be complete without visiting the historic Jama Masjid Mosque.
This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction of the Taj Mahal and many other Mughal architecture and garden complexes in India.
As an architect I make it a point to visit historic sites and Humayuns Tomb lived upto all the drama of Mughal architecture.. light, shadows, arches, sandstone they were all there like a well orchestrated Karan Johar movie.. pl do visit.
