subject: Must Visit Patriotic Destinations In Delhi [print this page] Delhi, Dilli, Delli, this Indian capital is called by many names across the country but, each of these names do only partial justice to the charm and love that this city has to give. Being a well-connected destination, availability of airline tickets for cheap is no surprise. From the time you step your feet on this Indian terrain, be ready to be taken by pleasant surprises at each step as the city is indeed the place of huge contrasts.
If your research before visiting the country is strong, you will easily find cheap flights to Delhi and will surely come across the following must visit places that are special to Indias proud history of freedom struggle and destinations that have power of deciding the lives of population of a billion.
India Gate (Not to be misunderstood with Gateway of India in Mumbai), located at Rajpath is the most visited tourist destination. Built by Britishers the structure infuses nationalism in its aura. Any movement or revolution that upraises in India, finds its supporters holding candle marches here.
Red Fort may not be connected to the freedom struggle but plays an essential role in the multifaceted nationalism. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan, this Lal Quila is open on all days except Monday for visitors. Prime Minister of India addresses Indian citizens each year on the occasion of Independence Day, making this monument vital.
You can certainly take home pleasant memories of Delhi when you embark upon half a day walking tour of Old Delhi. A walk around the Connaught Place, the Palika Bazaar, the corporate buildings and the Metro Museum, resemble an assimilation of old as well as new architecture.
The Delhi Zoo is yet another must visit place if you are truly interested in knowing more about the rich bio diversity in India and the attempts taken to preserve it. You could be lucky enough to have a glimpse at the rare white tiger housed at the National Zoological Park (NZP), Mathura Road, which is open all days of the week except Friday.
Choose your flight deals wisely so that you can visit this historical cavalcade on a Monday. Your visit is incomplete without visiting the tomb of one of the most influential, strong, peace-loving and revolutionary person world has ever had- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. His tomb tugged amongst the large landscape of beautiful gardens, is the most peaceful place in entire Delhi and probably one of the rarest public place to bring such calm and peace to your mind and soul. This place has gained momentum recently due to regular visits of Anna Hazare, an anti-corruption activist.
If flights to Delhi are full of eager anticipation, the flight back is a satisfied one with numerous proud memories of countrys rich history, warm hospitality and not to forget cheap shopping and scrumptious food.
