									<p class="has-drop-cap has-normal-font-size">DELHI &#8211; The capital city of India has its own charm. I am not saying this because I was brought up here. Despite all that&#8217;s said about this city, I truly love it. From the various monuments that speak a lot about the city&#8217;s history to the streets which speak about its character, this city has so much to offer.<br /><br />If you are visiting Delhi, there is so much to do, but these 12 things should definitely be on your list. These are the places I love visiting over and over again and will probably never ever get bored of.</p>

									<p>Starting with the most off beat location in Delhi. Khari Baoli Market is Asia&#8217;s largest spice market selling a variety of spices, nuts, herbs etc. This small street filled with hustle bustle has an aroma of its own (Obviously!). Hundreds of traders and buyers gather in the market for trading spices, and you will be surprised how trade happens here in such an orderly and organized manner. This place is also frequented by Instagrammers and is a photographers paradise. One can get a panoramic view of Old Delhi from here.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">How to reach</span> &#8211; The nearest metro station is Chandni Chowk or Lal Quila metro station.

									<p>The next obvious one has to be the pride of Delhi &#8211; India Gate. This is one place that I have probably been to the most in life. From early morning walks to boating and enjoying an ice cream at night, this place can leave a lasting impression on anybody. For all those who don&#8217;t know, India gate was previously known as the All India War Memorial. The names of 13,300 servicemen&#8217;s , including some soldiers and officers from the United Kingdom are inscribed on the gate. If you are in Delhi, then this is the place which should definitely be on your list.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">How to reach</span> &#8211; The easiest way is my taking the metro and getting off at the Central Secretariat.

									<p>As Taqi Mir said &#8211; <em>&#8220;Both heart and Delhi may have been worn out, but some little pleasures still remain in this ruined house&#8221;</em>. As I said in the beginning, Delhi has a rich historical background. After Agra, this city became the prime capital of the Mughals. The Qutub Minar is the tallest brick minaret in the world and is a UNESCO World Heritage monument. The Qutub complex consists of number of architectural wonders like mosques, pillars and tombs. The best time to visit this place is during early morning as you will find minimal crowd. <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Entry ticket</span> &#8211; INR 35 for Indian citizens and INR 550 for foreign interest (weekdays).

									<p>Its said the real soul of Delhi lies in <em>&#8216;Old Delhi&#8217;</em>. Its where you will find the famous Red Fort and Chandni Chowk. This historic fort in Delhi was home to Mughal emperors and was constructed under the reign of Shah Jahan . The fort&#8217;s artwork synthesizes Persian, European and Indian art, resulting in a unique <em>Shahjahani</em> style rich in form, expression and color.</p>
<p>On the eastern end of Red Fort you will find the famous market of Chandni Chowk. This is one of the oldest markets in Delhi which primarily consists of three main markets &#8211; The Urdu Bazaar, Johri Bazaar and the Fatehpur Bazaar. Though this area is supremely congested, the market retains its historical character.<br /><br /><u>Fun Fact</u> &#8211; You will find tons of eateries in Chandni Chowk. If you are here you should definitely try some yummy <em>parathas</em> at the Parathe waali gali!<br /><br /><u>Entry fee </u>&#8211; Red Fort ticket price for Indians is INR 35 and for foreigners it is INR 500. The Red Fort entry ticket for the Light and Sound show is INR 60 for adults and INR 20 for children. The weekend ticket rate will cost you INR 80 for adults and INR 30 for kids.<br /><br />How to reach &#8211; The nearest metro station is the Chandni Chowk metro station.</p>								</div>

									<p>This is one experience which will remain close to your heart forever! Here you will see a different Delhi. You have to head to the Yamuna Ghat, situated near a cremation ground. The ghats serve as a religious spot throughout the year, however during the winter months it becomes the home to hundreds of migratory birds. The best time to visit this place is at the early hours of the day. As the sun starts to rise, one can find local boat drivers begin taking paying customers (INR 50-100 per person) out into the middle of the river. These boats are filled with bags of bread and grains to attract these birds.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">How to reach</span> &#8211; You can easily find this location on google maps.

Out of all them, Agrasen ki Baoli is my favorite (mostly because this is the only places I dared to go out of the many options available!). <br /><br />Baoli means step well. Although there are no historical data to prove who built it, it is believed to be built by king Agrasen. The baoli was rebuilt in the 14th century during the Tughlaq period of Delhi Sultanate. The Step Well has around 103 steps. Earlier it was filled with black water which has dried up, but according to legend, many people who have come here were often led to the water and felt like drowning in it. <br /><br />Many people have complained of being followed even when there is no one around! Quiet Eerie right? Despite being free of cost for people to come and see this monument, very few people really visit this place!<br /><br /><u>Timings</u> &#8211; 9 am to 5:30 pm<br /><br /><u>How to reach</u> &#8211; Nearest metro station Barakhamba Road Metro and Mandi House.

									<p>One of my favorite things to do in Delhi is trying out the <a href="https://ritudey.com/top-10-street-food-options-in-delhi/">street food</a>. Delhi has a lot to offer when it comes to street food. From &#8216;Momos&#8217; to &#8216;Chole bhature&#8217; to &#8216;Aloo chat&#8217; you name it and Delhi has it. Its a street food haven. You will find some or the other delicacies being made with love. My favorite places to eat some lip smacking food are Lajpat Nagar, Connaught place, M Block market &#8211; GK 1, Chandni chowk and Satyaniketan. <br /><br />Street food starts at as low as INR 10.</p>
<p>So that&#8217;s my ultimate list of all the places you should definitely cover on your next trip to Delhi. There is much more to Delhi than the above places and I can suggest you so many other places! But if you are looking for a wholesome experience and have a limited number of days, then these places should be definitely on your list! You won&#8217;t be disappointed that&#8217;s a true <em>&#8220;Dilliwallah&#8217;s&#8221;</em> promise to you :)</p>								</div>

Hi Ritu,
Very informative. There are a lot of good places to visit towards Old Delhi as mentioned by you. Would love to visit the places once the pandemic is under control.
Thank you for those kind words! I am sure you will find these spots in Old Delhi Interesting and captivating! 😀
I really want to check this boating at yamuna. Thank you for listing down all these beautiful gems of delhi.
I am glad you liked the suggestions! Go during early morning to witness the beauty Yamuna Ghat has to offer! 🤓
Wow nice post! Haven’t visited many places you have listed. And wonderful quote to close the blog😊. Great work!
Thank you so much! You should definitely check out the places on your next Delhi Darshan 😬
Hi Rituparna, Apart from Nizammudin Dargah I had visited every place that you had mentioned here. Once I was about to visit Nizammudin Dargah in the evening during Kawali but somehow it got cancelled. So, it’s still left to be visited from my side.
You should definitely visit this place the next time you visit Delhi! You probably are the only person I know who has covered all the rest of the places mentioned! Thats so cool 😬
Disclosure, I am from Delhi only 😂
Haha! My bad! Whenever you get time ya, do check out Nizamuddin Dargah!
Yeah , sure
