India with Caroline Paris - ROCS Travel Traveller's Tales

Day 8 The final destination was Delhi . We had one day in Delhi before catching the flight back to Malta, we had a local guide booked to take us around the city. We rode a rickshaw around the old city. Delhi was a bit of a shock in a way after the ore peaceful villages we had visited. Old Delhi is much busier, more people out and about and I felt happy to have a guide with us, navigating the roads. We visited a stellar spice store and picked out some herbs and spices to bring back home with us. We also visited the stunning Jama Masjid, the largest mosque in Delhi, the complex is truly impressive, built in the time when Delhi was better known as Shahjahanabad, capital of the Mughal Empire, 1638 -1857.

We also visited the New part of the city and had lunch at the Imperial Palace and visited Gandhi’s grave.
