Day 1:
Delhi
Arrive at Delhi International airport, where our airport
representative will receive and transfer to hotel. Located on
the banks of the River Yamuna, Delhi has been continuously
inhabited since at least the 6th century BCE. After
the rise of the Delhi Sultanate, Delhi emerged as a major political, cultural
and commercial city along the trade routes between northwest India and the
Gangetic plain. It is the site of many ancient and medieval monuments,
archaeological sites and remains. In 1639, Mughal emperor Shahjahan built a
new walled city in Delhi which served as the capital of the Mughal Empire
from 1649 to 1857. After the British East India Company had gained control of
much of India during the 18th and 19th centuries, Calcutta became the capital
both under Company rule and under the British Raj, until George V
announced in 1911 that it was to move back to Delhi. A new capital city, New
Delhi, was built to the south of the old city during the 1920s. When India
gained independence from British rule in 1947, New Delhi was declared its
capital and seat of government. As such, New Delhi houses important offices
of the federal government, including the Parliament of India, as well as
numerous national museums, monuments, and art galleries.Overnight stay at
