Old & New Delhi

Delhi is actually two cities – the old city, and the new. The contrast between these twin cities is striking, ensuring a fascinating cultural visit for any family.

Old Delhi pulses with the energy and colour, the hustle and bustle of thronged bazaars and is laced with a maze of narrow lanes which twist and turn between tall, leaning houses; a fascinating insight to sights, sounds and aromas of the Indian sub-continent. It is here you will see the enormous Red Fort, the Jama Masjid Mosque with its tapering minarets and wonderful marble domes, and the bustling bazaar of Chandni Chowk.

New Delhi is a complete contrast; it is a landscaped city of wide boulevards, colonial monuments, stately palaces and formal parks.
