Delhi stands in a triangle formed by the Yamuna river in the east and spurs from the Aravalli range in the west and south. It is surrounded by Haryana on all sides except east where it borders with Uttar Pradesh, Delhi has a semi-arid climate with high variation between summer and winter temperature.
Being the Capital of India, Delhi is the centre stage of all political activities. After Independence on 15th August 1947, Delhi was officially declared as the Capital of republic. The 69th constitutional amendment is a milestone in Delhi's history. In 1991, Delhi was declared as the National Capital Territory. The National Capital Territory comprise nine districts, 158 villages and 62 towns.
Delhi is not only the largest commercial centre in northern India, but also the largest centre of small industries. Each year Delhi draw a huge number of tourists. Delhi's culture is diverse because of huge influx of migrants from different pars of the country. The amalgamation of various companies, traditions and religion has painted Delhi in colors which are brought all over India.
A land of immigrants, a place where for centuries people have come, lived, traded, fought wars and travelled on. I simply love all that Delhi has to offer...
It is a place where history has left indelible marks – signs of which can be seen even today. Be it the Purana Qila, Qutab Minar or Humayun’s tomb, the city has old and new historical monuments that tell many tales.
India consists of twenty eight states and almost each one of them is unique in their food, their traditional attire, their festivals and language. Delhi is probably the one place where one can find a representation of people from each and every state of the rest of India.Delhi has alluring charm, unique diverse culture and history to be proud of.
