Start with Delhi’s layers of history: Mughal monuments, neighbourhood markets, sacred spaces and leafy gardens. Group sights by area to spend less time crossing the city.
Places to explore
- Old Delhi: Red Fort surroundings, Jama Masjid and Chandni Chowk.
- South Delhi: Qutb Minar and Mehrauli’s heritage.
- Central Delhi: India Gate and museums.
- A slower afternoon: Humayun’s Tomb and Lodhi Garden.
