The Capital of India, Delhi

Delhi, The Capital of India

Chandani Chawk, DelhiDelhi is perhaps the most important metropolitan city in India. Being the capital city of the country it is the seat of power. Through the annals of history, Delhi has been the most coveted place for the Indians as well as the foreign invaders. The city has a large population and it is a melting pot for people all over the country who have come here and made it their own. It has a rich historical past as is evident from the various monuments which bear witness to the rich and varied heritage of Delhi. Delhi shares its borders with Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, but the boundaries are not obvious as the population has spilled over to these states and now Gurgaon and Faridabad and NOIDA and Ghaziabad are a part of the capital territory.
Towering sky-scrapers next to historical monuments, posh South Extension market and the crowded Bazaars of Chandni Chowk, the Greater Kailash colony and the Yamuna Pushta slums — all exist side by side.
