Delhi is both a union territory within India and a city and features two very different worlds: New Delhi and Old Delhi.
Old Delhi is considered the symbolic heart of the greater metropolitan area.

Delhi is a heady mix of tradition and modernity. It is important as a religious centre and India's busiest international gateway. Its history is as old as the ancient Yamuna River, one of the most sacred rivers in Hinduism and a natural dividing line between New Delhi to the west and Old Delhi to the east.

Things to see and do in Delhi and New Delhi are plentiful and include experiencing its diverse arts and crafts industry, its many magnificent monuments, and countless performing arts venues. The area is also well known for its excellent cuisine, including delicacies from every corner of India. Delhi is also a shopper's paradise with numerous bazaars and markets, including Chandni Chowk, the country's most famous commercial area.
