Some Brief Information about our Tour Highlights:
Raj Ghat:
Raj Ghat Is located on the banks of Yamuna River and was built as a cenotaph for honouring Mahatma Gandhi. There is a grave black marble podium at this site which is the spot of cremation of Mahatma Gandhi done on 31st January 1948. It also has an abiding flame at one end and a stone footpath with lawns on the either sides. These lawns lead to the enclosed space having the memorial of Mahatma Gandhi with the epitaph ‘Hey Ram’. This place is situated on the ring road which is officially known as Mahatma Gandhi Road.
Red Fort:
Red Fort is the most popular tourist destination in Delhi and is located near ChandniChowk in Old Delhi. It is called Red Fort because it is made of red stone. It came into existence when the Mughal capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi in 1638. This fort is the best living example to India’s history and witness to the struggle for freedom.

Constructed with red sand stone and white marbles bearing stripes of black color, the minarets are the focal points of this mosque. On top of the minarets a person can experience and exhilarating view of Meena bazaar. As a part of ritual, Namaz is recited on Fridays in the prayer hall of Jama Mosque.
Humayan's Tomb:
The most perfectly proportioned and captivating of Delhi’s mausoleums, Humayan’s tomb seems to float above the gardens that surround it. Built in the mid-16th century by Haji Begum, the Persian-born senior wife of the Mughal emperor Humayun, the tomb brings together Persian and Mughal elements, creating a template that strongly influenced the Taj Mahal.
Lotus Temple:
The Lotus Temple is one of the major attractions in Delhi. Built during the later half of the 20th century, Lotus Temple is better known as a mecca for visitors traveling from all across the world. The temple adequately depicts an independent area fit for praying for all the religions, caste and community.
