New Delhi New Me

Posted byfirstlanguageenglishPosted inUncategorized

New Delhi is a magical place.It is one of the greatest cities in the world as it is filled to the brim with amazing culture.

When we reached New Delhi, we were greeted by a warm ‘Namaste’ as we sipped on our flavorful ‘Chai’ . We left the Chai stall and made our way to the Chandai Chowk bazaar. Before we even stepped into the bazaar, the fumes viciously attacked our noses. As we hustled our way through, we tasted the flavors of India. After we stuffed ourselves, we left to our hotel which we booked.

It was early in the morning as we went to the iconic Red Fort. We explored the place with our tour guide who informed us that the Red Fort was originally white. After we were done exploring Red Fort, we left to the India Gate which is a war memorial. It stands as a memorial to 70000 soldiers who died in between 1914 to 1921. The India Gate is a sight to behold.

We then left to our final destination which was one of the most famous temples in the world- The Mangal Mahadev Mandir Rangpur temple. We were greeted by a 33 meter tall towering statue – The Hindu god – Lord Shiva. We travelled seeing other gods like Durga and Hanuman.We then checked out of our hotel left as our ride took us to the airport. Our trip was fun and enjoyable.

What to Eat:

  • Butter chicken

It was first made in Moti Mahal. It was accidentally made when mixing leftover chicken with tomato gravy which is rich in butter and cream.  

  • Chaat

It is street food. It is a savoury snack

  • Kebabs

They are sticks of meat grilled

  • Transportation in New Delhi
  • It has a public transportation system known as the Delhi Metro.
  • You can also go by buses, taxis and rickshaws.
  • Rickshaws are cheaper than taxis but they are tricky to hire as most of them do not agree to standard meter charges.The typical way is to haggle for an agreeable price.
  • Best time to Travel to New Delhi
  • October To March is the best time to visit New Delhi as the weather stays pleasant. It is also when events and festivals are celebrated.
  • It receives a fair amount of rain in July and August.
  • Summers in New Delhi are hot and humid with temperatures from 25 degrees Celsius to 45 degrees Celsius.

This wordpress is mainly for my kiddos to learn and publish their travel blogs! They may or may not travel to that particular destination. I am giving them an opportunity to learn to be at least so-so content writers. My advice to you is to be nice and provide meaningful comments. Just so you know, if I catch you being mean, I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND MAKE YOUR HEAD MY NEW ORNAMENT in my class. And I meant it in the nicest way possible. Love, Mr Eddie.
