Guide To Historical Monuments In Delhi

The historical significance of Delhi cannot be negated, even if the city is now better known for its industries, politics and poor air quality. The plethora of historical places in Delhi makes for an interesting excursion around the city. Having being influenced by several cultures and reigns, Delhi is a melting pot of structural beauty. Needless to say, it also gives you an insight into the grandeur and resplendence that the city once enjoyed. Most historical places in Delhi are well preserved, and can offer a chance to enjoy a delightful afternoon of exploration. Here is a list of historical places in Delhi to check out:

Qutub Minar: One of the most important, and probably one of the most popular, historical monuments in Delhi is the Qutub Minar. Its iconic image, soaring high to the sky, is sure to be reminiscent of Delhi whenever you see it again. A UNESCO World Heritage site, its construction was started in the year 1192 by Qutb ud Din Aibak, and was added to by successive rulers. It is 73 meters tall, with 5 storeys and the famous Iron Pillar, encircling which ensures good luck for life.

Humayun’s Tomb: One of the first garden tombs of the country, Humayun’s Tomb was ordered to be built by Empress Bega Begum, the first wife of Humayun. Hundreds of workers were involved in its construction, under the watchful eyes of the famed Persion father-son architect duo, Mirak Mirza Ghiyas and Sayyid Muhammad. Constructed entirely of pristine white marble and red sandstone, it was built in 1570, almost 10 years after Humayun passed away, and is a popular spot for locals and tourists to experience the grandeur that Delhi was known for.

Red Fort: A stunning example of Mughal architecture, the Red Fort is probably the most important of all historic sights in the city. It was the official residence of the Mughal emperors for almost 200 years, and is now home to several museums, a few quirky shops, and a beautiful garden area. It was ordered to be constructed by Shah Jahan, in the 17th century as the fort of his capital Shahjahanabad, which occupied the central regions of Delhi. The Sound and Light Show that is put on here every day attracts a lot of viewers, locals and tourists alike.

Old Fort: The Old Fort of Delhi is a major tourist attraction, and a crowd-puller as far as tourists go. Since there are plenty of other places to check out nearby, it is indeed a good idea to spend some time here and take in the aura of the erstwhile era of the Mughal Kings and Queens. It is truly one of the most historical buildings in Delhi and deserves its place in the hall of fame as far as Delhi attractions go.

Jantar Mantar: Another gem in Delhi’s crown is the Jantar Mantar. With its complex zodiac-based structures and a gigantic sun-dial, it is a good place to spend some time at. People like to visit with families and friends since there are other attractions to check out nearby. The grounds itself of Jantar Mantar are a good place to enjoy a few hours with the family. It is a must visit for sure, among all historical places in Delhi.

India Gate: The historical significance of India Gate cannot be negated, when talking about the best historical places in Delhi. A war memorial to commemorate the lives of over 80,000 Indian soldiers who were martyred during World War I. Designed by the much famed Edwin Lutyens, it is 42 meters high and has become an immensely popular spot for locals and tourists alike. The lush green gardens of the structure and the many eateries are a grand place to enjoy an evening.

Rashtrapati Bhavan: Located to the west of Rajpath and opposite to India Gate in New Delhi, the impressive edifice of Rashtrapati Bhavan is another amazing attraction you must visit on your Delhi excursion. Reflecting a perfect blend of European and Mughal style architecture, this sprawling place lets you dig into the history of India like no other tourist hotspot.  

Delhi is full of such historical monuments, which don’t just take you back in time but also ensure that you can take a gander at one of the most culturally and historically rich capitals of the world.

    Sri's 3 days trip to Delhi

    I recently had the pleasure of traveling through the Golden Triangle of India, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Travel Triangle and Aapka TripWala. From start to finish, they ensured a seamless and enjoyable experience with their impeccable planning and friendly service. The journey to
    ok me through the vibrant and historical cities of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, each offering its own unique charm and historical significance. In Delhi, I marveled at the blend of ancient monuments like the Qutub Minar, Red Fort and modern life bustling through the city. Agra stole my heart with the ethereal beauty of the Taj Mahal. Jaipur, the Pink City, captivated me with its majestic Amber Fort and the vibrant Hawa Mahal. The hospitality and rich cultural heritage in each city made this trip unforgettable. The Golden Triangle tour, perfectly curated by Travel Triangle and Aapka Trip Wala, is a must for anyone seeking to experience the essence of India's diverse and vibrant culture in a short span of time. I highly recommend their services for a memorable and hassle-free travel experience. There are countless highlights from my trip, but two experiences stand out in particular: 1. The ethereal beauty of the Taj Mahal in Agra: Witnessing this iconic symbol of love and devotion up close was truly awe-inspiring. Its stunning white marble façade, intricate carvings, and serene gardens create an atmosphere of timeless elegance that left a lasting impression on me. 2. The vibrant cultural experience at Chowki Dhani resort in Jaipur: This resort perfectly encapsulates the elegance and royalty of the Pink City. From the traditional Rajasthani architecture to the authentic folk performances and delectable cuisine, every moment at Chowki Dhani was a celebration of Jaipur’s rich heritage and regal charm.

    Prosenjit's 5 days trip to Delhi

    The Hotel (Sita International) which was booked for us in Delhi was not at all Good., simply pathetic. So, it's strictly recommended not to visit or book any room at Sita International in New Delhi (Near to New Delhi Railway Station). The hotel was booked by the travel agency & the name of the Hotel
    is Sita International. But there is no sign of international standards & quality of that Hotel. They're using that "International" tag only for business that's it. The "deluxe room" they provided to us (Me, my wife & my 5-year-old son) is a remarkably simple ordinary one- or two-star category hotel room. The blanket they provided to us was torn. For reference please I've attached pictures of that blanket. The button under the shower in the bathroom was broken. Now after sharing all the information in reception, the hotel people behaved very casually & asked me to adjust. I informed my travel agent (Back to Holiday) regarding the issue, and my travel agent confirmed that in the evening they'll change my room but after returning from sightseeing the hotel said, "Room change is not possible because all rooms are booked". So, this is the situation I faced during my travel on the very first day (14.10.24). And in the morning The Hotel owner talked with me on the phone & told me that I made a quite simple issue into a big issue. So after paying advance to the travel agency, I faced this kind of situation. Last but not least, in the morning I found RAT in that room. And they're called it's an International Hotel. So strictly & Strictly recommended before booking anything think twice. Yes, after that remaining two Hotels are good (Gurukripa @ Mathura and Royal View @ Jaipur) & as per the standard, especially the last one (Royal View at Jaipur- 3-star category Hotel) .... Now regarding Cab. The Cab driver has a huge setting with all the guides in each & everywhere (Agra, Mathura, Jaipur) .... Directly & indirectly, he forced us to hire a guide so that he could earn a commission. And you'll not deny it because, in the middle of the tour, it's very risky & not at all safe. The driver has a very good local connection & I was traveling with my wife & my 5-year-old son. If I refused to hire a guide, he could have done anything locally because of his local connection & we're very new in that area. When at Jaipur we told that driver we don't require any guide he told me during travel maybe we'll face problems. Now in that situation what do you do? So as per his recommendation, we're forced to hire a guide as per the driver's choice, and we paid him Rs. 800 as decided by the driver (The normal government guide charge is Rs. 400).... So, if you'll travel along with your family (Like wife & son) you've got to accept all the terms & conditions of the driver because he has a strong local connection & you don't have that connection. Not only that, the driver will take you to some local shops where he has a good connection & if you buy something from that shop the driver will get a commission. Even on this trip, our driver took some local shops in Agra where he has a commission-based connection. Otherwise, he was not interested in taking you to some local shops where he'd not get any commission.

    Rohit's 5 days trip to Delhi

    **Trip Review: A Wonderful Delhi Experience Arranged by Our Travel Agent** My recent trip to Delhi, arranged by a travel agent, was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every detail was meticulously planned, making the trip smooth and enjoyable. The itiner
    ary was well-organized, covering both the iconic landmarks and hidden gems of Delhi. Our visit started with the stunning Red Fort, where the grandeur of Mughal architecture left us in awe. This was followed by a trip to Jama Masjid, one of India's largest mosques, offering a breathtaking view of Old Delhi. We also visited India Gate, a significant war memorial, and Rashtrapati Bhavan, giving us a glimpse of Delhi's colonial heritage. Our agent, Nidhi Chaudhary was knowledgeable and friendly, explaining of each site. The accommodations chosen for us were top-notch. We stayed at a centrally located hotel, which was clean, comfortable, and provided excellent service. Our agent also made sure that we had safe and reliable Special thanks to Nidhi Chaudhary @ back2holidays who has exceptional support and arranged all trip. Great Work Nidhi ..
