Jama Masjid,Delhi

Jama Masjid,Delhi
                                                                                
It was my chance my chance to visit the history again in Delhi.I went to buy books from Nai Sadak and while returning from there ,I took a rickshaw to reach the bus stand.The rickshaw moved from the small lanes of Old Delhi making way in the maddening crowd.The smell of tasty food was enticing me but i just maintained my calm looking at my belly.All of a sudden a massive piece of architecture emerged from the congested lanes and my heart knew what to do.

Travel to Delhi

Delhi

Birla Mandir,Delhi
                                                                          
Being my birth place is close to my heart. Such is the historical importance of Delhi that ,it has been mentioned in Mahabharata by the name Indraprastha. It has been captured, plundered and recaptured so many times that history has lost counts. It has been ruled by slave kings, mughals and British.It is the capital of India,located on the banks of river Yamuna.Mugal king Shahjahan built many marvellous pieces of architecture here as well as the walled city of Delhi.British too changed there capital from Kolkatta to Delhi in !911.                                                                                  
     Delhi extends from Narela in north to Badarpur in south to Seemapuri in east and Najafgarh in west.

Climate
Monsoon at Delhi
                                                                          
Delhi has varied climate. It is too hot in summer and too cold in winter, monsoon in July, August, mid-September. It can be visited anytime of the year except monsoon.
