Steeped in history, Delhi is a city that has so much to offer, if you only wish to explore. 

Check with our concierge team for a brief glimpse of the city that has attracted many civilizations over centuries. Get charmed by the stories buried in Red Fort and the great mosque Jama Masjid. Walk around Chandni Chowk and take in the splendour of India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhavan and Parliament House. Find a spiritual connect in the Humayun’s Tomb or Hazrat Nizamudin Dargah. Feast on the stories of power struggle embedded in the walls of Purana Quila - the massive sandstone fort from the Mughal era. Walk around the old city, take in the splendour of Lodhi Gardens, Nature walk in Nehru Park and walk around the ruins of the Qutub Minar complex. Then, head to the Jama Masjid, India’s largest mosque with a capacity to hold 25,000 people.

If you prefer retail therapy, head to the DLF Emporio, Chankya Mall, Khan Market, DLF Promenade or Ambience Mall and while you are at it, try not to miss the splendour of 50 performers at the Kingdom of Dreams in Gurgaon, dancing and singing in perfect synchrony to the legend of Zangoora, the Gypsy Prince.

Explore the contrasts between the old and new sides of the city. Old Delhi is perhaps one of the oldest existing cities in the world - besides Varanasi and Jerusalem - having been destroyed and rebuilt at least 11 times. Its ancient tombs, crumbling forts and winding bazaars are all testimony to its history. Mughal architecture and magnificent monuments set in beautifully landscaped gardens narrate the diverse stories of a rich past of the city. Take a tour of Delhi for its ancient monuments, fascinating museums and art galleries, performing arts, medieval-looking markets, modern entertainment options and some fabulous restaurants that promise exceptional treats from all over the subcontinent as well as the globe. One must, sample the renowned Delhi street food at Chandni Chowk or thrift shop at the wonderfully affordable Sarojini Market.
