Delhi
Exploring the Heart and Soul of India Nestled at the heart of India, New Delhi beckons with its magnetic allure, recounting tales of bygone eras from every corner. A witness to India’s scars and victories, New Delhi’s story intertwines with the struggle for freedom and the nation’s aspirations. Today, it stands as a symbol of India’s strength and achievements, making it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking to unravel the intricacies of the country and its people.
The ideal time to explore Delhi is during the winter months, from October to March. The weather during this period is pleasantly cool, making it perfect for sightseeing during the day and relishing the diverse flavors of Indian and world cuisines, including delectable street food, during the evenings. The winter season brings forth an array of festivals like Dusshera, Diwali, Christmas, New Year, Lohri, and Holi, adding a festive aura to the city. While December and January mark the coldest months, the charm of “Dilli Ki Sardi” is renowned. The scorching heat of April to June is best avoided, as temperatures can soar up to 45-48 degrees Celsius. The monsoon season from July to September offers relief from the heat, allowing you to explore attractions like Phoolwalon Ki Sair and the Garden of Five Senses.
