Whether you are an amateur of history, an ardent foodie, or shopaholic, Delhi has so many attractions that will surely keep you engrossed. In this article, we shall examine some of the most crowded places to visit in Delhi and how Tour Plan India would help make the best of your trip.
One of the most famous places in Delhi is the Red Fort-a UNESCO World Heritage site and a symbol of India's long, proud history. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1648, it gives a glimpse into India's rich past through its sheer wall of red sandstone buildings, so typical of Mughal architecture. The fine structures of this fort with small gardens, and the light and sound show at dusk, make it a must visit place.
You will be taken through the history and the hidden stories of the Red Fort by a tour guide from Tour Plan India. This fort is particularly famous on India's Independence Day, a day on which the national flag is hoisted by the Prime Minister here.
Another of the UNESCO world heritage sites, and one of the must-visit places in Delhi, Qutub Minar is a stunning monument of Indo-Islamic architecture. This 73 meters tall minaret, erected in the 12th century, is a beautiful confluence of ancient ruins, mosques, and tombs that take you back in time.
It provides interesting guided tours that explain the significance of the Qutub complex and its historical context for those interested in history and architecture. Don't miss a short trip to the fascinating Iron Pillar that has proved incomprehensible to scientists for its rust resistance for centuries.
