By Air :
Delhi is well connected by air with many airlines flying into and out of Delhi.
There are two airports, the Safdarjang airport and the Indira Gandhi International Airport. The Safdarjang airport is used by various flying clubs and helicopters after the new airport was built. The new airport was initially known as the Palam Airport due to the village Palam where it was constructed. Now the airport has two separate terminals - one for domestic flights and the other for international flights, linking Delhi to all other Indian cities.The Indira Gandhi International Airport is located some 23-kms away from the city center.

The two airports are linked by bus/coach services. There is an official prepaid desk for booking taxis and therates are fixed. One can pay for the same before boarding the taxi. The Taxi counter is located just outside the customs hall in the International terminal and just outside Baggage claim area in the domestic arrivals.

By Rail
Delhi is very well connected by rail to all parts of India. Delhi currently has five railway stations. Namely, The Old Delhi Railway Station (this was the first railway station built in Delhi) and is located near Chandini Chowk area of Delhi. Next came the New Delhi Railway Station located between New and Old Delhi and just off Connaught Place. With increase in traffic, two more railway stations are being developed. First is the Nizamuddin Railway Station, which is located towards South Delhi. The other is Sarai Rohilla Railway Station. This station caters the trains mainly from West India (Rajasthan and Haryana). Then there is the Railway Cantonment, which is primary for the military trains. It is also the starting and ending point for the trains Palace on Wheels, Royal Orient and Black Beauty.

The main office for making train reservations is located between the New Delhi Station and Connaught Place on Chelmsford Road. For foreigners, there is a separate reservation office located on the first floor of the New Delhi Railway Station. Special quotas are available till the last moment on various trains against foreign currency payment.

Direct trains connect Delhi to Guwahati (Rajdhani Express, Purushotam Express, Gomati Express, Brahmaputra Mail), Lucknow (Shatabdi Express), Varanasi (Kashi Vishwanath Express), Mumbai (Rajdhani Express), Agra (Taj Express), Bangalore (Karnataka Express) and Thiruvannanthapuram (Kerala Express).

With the addition of special fast trains, Delhi is now well connected with majority of the State Capitals and important towns. These overnight trains are known as Rajdhani trains. Then there are the Shatabdi(s). These are the trains that leave Delhi in the morning and return back to Delhi the same day. The most famous is the Shatabdi for Agra (takes just 2 hours either way) and ideal for executives and tourists alike. The other is the Shatabdi for Jaipur (takes just over 5 hours either way). Due to their popularity, similar trains are operating from other cities also e.g. From Chennai to Mysore via Bangalore and back and from Mumbai to Pune and back.

By Road
Delhi is Linked with Bus Services of Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC)
and state roadways of the neighbouring states to all important cities and destinations in North India. The Inter-State Bus Terminal (ISBT) located at Kashmiri Gate is fully equipped with a bank counter, tourist information center, post office and snack bars. Another Bus Terminus is at Sarai Kale Khan. Situated on Ring Road, this terminal is for inter-state buses going to Agra, Mathura, and Vrindavan. For buses to Uttranchal and Uttar Pradesh, there is another ISBT at Anand Vihar in East Delhi. Plans are afoot to make more at the outskirts of Delhi for South and West Delhi.

Places of Tourist Interest

The Garden Tomb
Humayun's tomb lies on the Mathura road near its crossing with the Lodi Road. High rubble-built walls enclose here a square garden divided initially into four large squares separated by causeways and channels, each square divided again into smaller squares by pathways ('Chaharbagh') as in a typical Mughal garden.

India Gate
At the center of New Delhi stands the 42m high India Gate, an
"Arc-de-Triomphe" like Archway in the middle of a crossroad. Almost similar to its French counterpart war memorial. It commemorates the 70,000 Indian soldiers who lost their lives fighting for the British Army during the First World War and bears the names of more than 13,516 British and Indian soldiers killed in the Northwestern Frontier in the Afghan war of 1919.

Jantar mantar
The various abstract structures within the Jantar Mantar are, in fact, instruments that were used for keeping track of celestial bodies. Yet, Jantar Mantar is not only a timekeeper of celestial bodies, it also tells a lot about the technological achievements under the Rajput kings and their attempt to resolve the mysteries regarding astronomy.

Old Fort
The Purana-Qila occupies the ancient mound, which conceals perhaps the ruins of the city of Indraprastha of Mahabharata story. Sher Shah Suri demolished the city of Dinpanah built by Humayun and on the same site raised this citadel.

Qutub Minar
Its a red sandstone tower covered with beautiful and striking carvings and is inscribed with verses from the holy Quran. Qutub Minar is still the highest stone tower in India as well as one of the fnest Islamic structures ever raised and Delhi's recognised landmark

Red Fort
The Red Fort, so called because of the red colour of the stone largely used in it, is octagonal on plan, with two longer sides on the east and west. On the north a bridge with Salimgarh connects the fort. It measures about 900m by 550m, with its rampart walls covering a perimeter of 2.41-km and rising to a height of 33.5m on the town side and 18m along the river. Outside the ramparts runs a moat, originally connected with the river.

Tughlaqabad fort
The massive strong walls of Tughlaqabad, the third city of Delhi, are located east of the Qutub Minar. The citadel frowns down ominously like some Gothic palace all over the Qutub-Badarpur road and seems to prefer its splendid isolation.

The National Museum has an amazing collection of Indian art and sculpture, which dates back from the prehistoric times and the priceless collection is spread over the three floors of the museum.

The ground floor has several galleries, each dedicated to a particular period in history. These galleries display rare pieces from the Paleolithic Age to the Mughal period. The most famous sculpture on this floor could be the Dancing Girl from Mohenjodaro, 2,500 BC. The Mughal period is depicted and displayed in vivid details in the paintings and Arabian manuscripts.
Of special interest is the superb Central Asian Gallery that exhibits the silk banners, sculpture and wall paintings that form part of Sir Aurel Stein's collection, brought to India in the early part of the 20th century.

Safdarjung Tomb
The memorial was built by Nawab Shuja-ud-Daulah who was the son of Mirza Muqim Abul Mansur Khan popularly known as Safdarjung (1739-54) who was the governor of the province of Awadh under Muhammad Shah (1719-48) and later became his prime minister. The tomb is roughly on the plans of Humayun's tomb, though much scaled down. It is set in the middle of an extensive garden, which spreads over an area of over 300-sq-metre.

The Rail Museum
Its vintage displays include the oldest locomotive in the world-still working; the Viceregal Dining Car (1889) and the Prince of Wales Saloon (1875), Maharaja of Mysore's Saloon (1899), Maharaja of Baroda's Saloon (1886). The royal saloons are definitely worth a look for the elaborate interior design.

RAJGHAT
On 31st January 1948, Mahatma Gandhi's last rites were
performed over here. The memorial stone of Gandhi is
square in shape made of black stone. His last word- 'Hey Ram' is inscribed on it. Ordinary people, VIPs, foreign tourists all come at Rajghat to pay their homage to the Father of the Nation. On every Friday (the day of his death) a prayer is held. Except Monday, a regular feature of projecting Gandhi philosophy in picture, sculpture and photos from 10.00am to 5.00pm is performed at Rajghat.


SHANTI VAN

VIJAY GHAT
This is the tomb of India's second Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. After the Indo-Pak war of 1965, Shastriji went to Tashkant in Russia on a peace mission and died of a heart attack. In 1966 his last rites were performed over here.

SHAKTI STHAL

Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib embraced martyrdom in Delhi on November 11th, 1675. Bhai Jaita and his associates brought his head to Chakk Nanaki. The cremation of the head (sis) of Guru Sahib was held at the site of the present gurudwara on November 17th, 1675.
