Dilli mein dil khush


This was my most interesting trip to Delhi ever! The nicest weather, my visit objectives were met, and there was lots to admire, not much to eat (thanks, diet) and endless goodies to shop.

I had my heritage fix from a quick dash to Hauz Khas village & Tughlaq tombs, with Souvik & Joy & Ma:

Then Ma & I followed it up with a ride in the hop on-hop off bus (called HOHO!) to visit Lal Qila & Purana Qila:

The rain couldn't hide the grandeur of Red Fort

Lahore Gate (Faces Lahore)

Diwan-e-aam

Truly imposing

Mughal art - fabulous even in disrepair

Fine, fine details in Diwan-e-khaas

Old Fort

Sher Mandal (where Humayun fell down the stairs)

Birds at the Baoli (stepped well)

The bus service had some great features (valid for 2 days within a week, coffee discounts), though we didn’t cover all the sights …. a good reason to head right back.
