It stands out in the city and is all about bringing people together, no matter where they come from. Inside, it's so quiet you can hear your thoughts. It’s a perfect spot to sit and just relax for a while.

After that, you're heading to the ISKCON Temple. Now, this place is full of energy. You’ll hear people singing lovely songs together that make you feel calm and happy. It's a place where people show their love for God, and you can feel the positive vibes all around. Join in the singing or just listen and enjoy the atmosphere.

So, two days in and you’ve already seen some of Delhi’s top spots! From the historical wonders yesterday to the peaceful temples today, it's been quite a ride. And guess what?

  • Delve into Delhi's monumental marvels

  • Highlights

    Qutub Minar, Jantar Mantar

Your journey through Delhi’s history keeps getting better with more exciting discoveries. Wake up in your hotel, excited for the day ahead. Have a good breakfast, and put on comfy shoes. Today, you're going on a fun adventure into Delhi's hidden spots.

Today is going to be super exciting! First up, you're visiting this super tall tower called Qutub Minar. It's so tall that you'll have to tilt your head way back to see the top. Think about a giant building made a long time ago without any big machines! Crazy, right? The designs on it are super detailed, kind of like someone drew all over it with a very fine pen. It's not just a pretty building, it tells us stories about people who lived a really long time ago.

After seeing this giant tower, you're off to a place called Jantar Mantar. Now, this isn't a palace or a temple. It’s like an old-timey space centre! A long time ago, people were super interested in stars and planets but didn't have telescopes like today. So, they built these big stone tools at Jantar Mantar to look at the sky and understand it better. When you see these tools, you'll think they look a bit strange, but they're super smart inventions.

To end our day, you should visit 'Paranthe Wali Gali' in Old Delhi. There are so many fillings, from spicy potato to sweet jaggery. Served hot with a side of pickles and yoghurt, it’s pure joy on a plate. Let’s rest up, remember - there's still so much more to taste and explore tomorrow. Sleep tight and dream of the adventures ahead!

    Buddha Jayanti Park, Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary

Hey nature lovers, Delhi has some cool spots just for you!

First, let's chill at Buddha Jayanti Park. Think of it as this big, green, peaceful place in the middle of the city. It’s a perfect spot to just lie down on the grass, read a book, or even watch some of the city birds hopping around. It's named after Buddha, and there's even a special tree here planted in his honour. This park gives you a break from the city's hustle and bustle. So, get your picnic mats out and let's enjoy some nature time!

Now, if you’re up for a bit more adventure, let's go to Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary. This isn’t just any regular park. It’s like nature's own zoo without cages. It's a safe place for animals and plants, which means you'll see types of birds, animals, and trees that you won't find in the city. Keep your cameras ready because if you’re lucky, you might spot some unique wildlife living their best life in their natural home.

Imagine walking on the trails, hearing the sound of leaves crunching under your feet, and spotting a rare bird or two.

To wrap up the day, let's sit and just soak in the sounds of nature. Delhi sure knows how to surprise, right? From busy markets to quiet nature spots, there’s something for everyone. Rest up because tomorrow's another exciting day!
