Day 5: sights of Delhi

We tried to cram in a few places of historic importance from around Delhi into a few hours of sight seeing… we ended up going to see the Qutub Minar, Lotus Temple, Raj Ghat, indhira Ghandi Memorial museum (I was the first one to protest when our bus stopped here, but ended up being among the last to come out of the place, rashmi pravi and I lost track of time…), and we saw the red fort and India Gate from afar… the sun was very low on the horizon when we passed by the India gate, it simply looked awesome with a ball of fire behind it…

Inevitably we were bamboozled, we were not taken to many places we were promised, but by the end of the trip we neither had the time nor the energy to fight… I didn’t even have much energy left to take pictures; Delhi’s scorching heat soaked it all up!!

Caveat: late afternoons or early mornings would be the best time to go around, better yet; I guess the weather would be more pleasant just before winter, then you can really take your time n enjoy the sites…

Kutub Minar: we've all read about it in our social studies lessons way back in middle school... and recently we've seen the place in Fanaa...
