Explore iconic monuments like the Red Fort, Qutub Minar, and Humayun's Tomb, showcasing Mughal architecture. Wander through the bustling streets of Chandni Chowk for a sensory overload of street food and vibrant markets. Connaught Place is the central business district with shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Don't miss trying local delicacies such as butter chicken, biryani, and street food like golgappe and chaat. The best areas to stay include South Delhi for a quieter atmosphere or Central Delhi for proximity to major attractions.
The best time to visit Delhi is during the winter months (October to March) when the weather is pleasant and ideal for sightseeing. Avoid the peak summer months (April to June) due to extreme heat. Flight prices tend to be higher during Diwali and the holiday season. For better value, consider traveling during the shoulder seasons (September-October or February-March). The Republic Day Parade (January 26th) is a major event, but be sure to book flights and accommodation well in advance if you plan to attend.
