Welcome to Delhi, the capital of India! Continuously inhabited since the 6th century BC, Delhi has served as the capital for various kingdoms and empires throughout its history. This city beautifully blends the historic charm of Old Delhi with the modern vibrancy of New Delhi. From historical monuments to bustling shopping malls, and from an extensive modern metro system to charming TukTuk rides, Delhi, fondly known as “Dilli,” is a city with a heart and multiple personalities.
In the afternoon, you’ll take a short visit to Agrasen Ki Baoli, an ancient water reservoir that emerges from the depths of the earth to stand atop 103 stone steps. Tucked away amidst the business towers and residential apartments of central Delhi, this serene and quiet spot is a photographer’s paradise. The old brick walls transport you back in time, and as you descend the steps, you’ll notice a drop in temperature. Agrasen Ki Baoli spans 15 meters in width and 60 meters in length, an impressive feat considering it is believed to have been built around the time of the Mahabharata.
