New Delhi Tourism & Travel Guide - Know Before you Go!

New Delhi Overview

Delhi is often used synonymously with the capital of India, New Delhi. The National Capital Territory of Delhi is the largest metropolis by area in India and includes rural and urban areas. The urban area, stretching from Jahangirpur to Saket, till Janakpuri - Dwarka in the West includes New Delhi. Located on the banks of the Yamuna, an interesting theory surrounding Delhi is that it has been inhabited since the 6th century B. C. and by people, since the 2nd century B.C. It is also rumoured to be the site of ‘Indraprastha’, the legendary capital of the Pandav Empire during the Mahabharatha. These theories only serve to sediment the notion of Delhi as a hotspot of history, culture and power. This is reflected in India’s capital: New Delhi. A visit to Delhi, even a short one, will leave you in awe of the smells, sounds, flavours and monumental depth of the city, pun intended. Because of its popularity as the capital through many Empires in the course of Indian history, Delhi has been relatively well taken care of, does not suffer from as much congestion, traffic and rat-like living as other metros, and has a distinct scent of aristocracy and power. It is also a seat of learning and has some of the most academically proficient universities in India. Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi University, and St. Stephens are three of the most celebrated Universities here, known for their rigour, credibility, and fine alumni. In the heart of India’s crown, surrounded by land, mountains and by the Yamuna, Delhi is almost entirely located on the Gangetic plain. Furthermore it is a Union Territory, and administered directly by the Central Government.
