DELHI Delhi – with Its Tenacious Touts and Crush of Mechanical And © Lonely Planet Publications 119 DELHI Delhi DELHI Delhi – with its tenacious touts and crush of mechanical and human traffic – can be downright confronting and confounding for the first-time visitor. But don’t let petulant first impres- sions muddy the plus points of this truly multidimensional metropolis. Scratch beyond the gritty surface and you’ll swiftly discover that India’s capital is sprinkled with glittering gems: captivating ancient monuments, magnificent museums, a vivacious performing-arts scene and some of the subcontinent’s yummiest places to eat. A vibrant melting pot, you’ll hear a jumble of vernaculars spoken in Delhi, the most common being Hindi, English, Punjabi and Urdu. In terms of its layout, Delhi encapsulates two very differ- ent worlds, the ‘old’ and the ‘new’, each presenting deliciously different experiences. Spacious New Delhi was built as the imperial capital of India by the British; rambunctious Old Delhi served as the capital of Islamic India. Visitors can easily dip into both, spending half the day immersing themselves in history at the dramatic Red Fort, Jama Masjid and medieval-flavoured bazaars of Old Delhi, and the other half reviving themselves over frothy cappuccinos or frosty cocktails at one of New Delhi’s swanky cafés and bars. Furthermore, Delhi’s recent global cuisine revolution means that hungry travellers can now feast on everything from meaty Mughlai curries and plump South Indian idlis (rice cakes), to crispy wood-fired pizzas and squishy sashimi. For those here to catch a flight home there are some glorious last-minute shopping op- portunities, with handicrafts from all around India – a real blessing if you regret not buying that twinkling mirrorwork bedspread in Rajasthan or striking Madhubani painting in Bihar. HIGHLIGHTS Wander around the Red Fort ( p127 ), a phenomenal testament to the once-mighty Red Fort Mughals Jama Masjid Peruse the capital’s outstanding museums and monuments: shining stars include the Crafts Museum National Museum ( p131 ), Humayun’s National tomb ( p130 ), Gandhi Smriti ( p130 ) and Museum Gandhi Smriti Crafts Museum ( p131 ) Humayun's Tomb Marvel at India’s largest mosque, the majestic Jama Masjid ( p129 ), which can hold a staggering 25,000 worshippers Gaze upon Qutb Minar ( p161 ), a soaring victory tower built to proclaim the arrival of Islam in India Shop ( p152 ) like a mad thing at the capital’s Qutb Minar bevy of earthy bazaars and chichi boutiques Quaff cocktails at a swish bar ( p150 ) then dine at one of Delhi’s superlative restaurants ( p145 ) DELHI 120 0 2 km DELHI 0 1 mile Radio 12 Delhi ὅὅὅὅ Dr KB Hedgewar Marg A B C Colony D E F ὈὈ To Chandigarh Ὀ Shalimar (248km) Bagh Wazirabad Rd ὅὅὅὅModel Rohini East Town 1 Majnu-ka-Tilla 1 Outer Ring Rd The Mall 18 Kohat Netaji Subhash 33 Enclave Place Khyber Pass Depot Ashok Grand Trunk Rd Khyber Yamuna River ὈὈὈὈVishwa Ὀ Pass Vihar Vidyalaya Vidhan Keshav Puram Sabha Ring Rd Rd Delhi University 2 Ring 2 Kanhiya Nagar (MG Kamla Nagar Rd) Civil 20 NH10 InderlokὈὈὈὈὈ New Rohtak Rd Lines Civil Lines Shastri Nagar Sabzi Mandi Jhansi Rd Kashmiri Boulevard Rd Train Station Gate Shastri Park Pul Rani Sarai Rohilla Pratap Nagar Kashmiri Gate 57 Silmpur Train Station Bangash Tis Silmpur Sabzi Hazari See Old Delhi Map (p128) Mandi Delhi Train Station Pontoon Bridge Kishan Ganj (Old Delhi) Train Station (Nov-Jun) Marginal Bandh Rd Chandni 3 Moti Nagar Patel Sadar Chowk Vijay 3 ὈὈὈὈὈὈQutb Rd ὈὈὈChandni Chowk ὈὈὈRed Rd Ring Ὀ Nagar Desh Bandhu Gupta Rd Bazaar Ghat Kirti Nagar Fort Old Delhi Ramesh Nagar Shadipur Karol (MG Rd) Shanti Patel Rd Bagh Chowri Bazaar 44 49 Vana Rajouri Garden Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg Pontoon Bridge 22 Karol Bagh 58 See Paharganj (Nov-Jun) Patel Nagar 23 Map (p140) New Delhi Tagore Garden Kirti Train 34 Station Train Station Pusa Rd Jhandewalan Paharganj Delhi Raj Rajendra Place Panchkuian New Delhi Rajendra Gate Ghat Sabhash Nagar ShankarNagar Rd Marg Naraina Train ὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈὈ 42 lonelyplanet.com Station Ganga Ram Shivaji Bridge Hospital Rd R.K.

The word ‘Street’ was borrowed from Latin language. The Delhi, India’s capital is believed to be one of the oldest cities Roman strata or paved roads were taken up to drive the word of the world. From Indraprastha to New Delhi, it had been a street. The word street helps us to recognise the roman roads long journey. As popularly believed, Delhi has been the site which were straight as an arrow, connecting the strategic for seven historic cities- Lalkot, Siri, Tughlaqabad, Jahan positions in the region. Panah, Ferozabad, Purana Quila and Shahajahanabad. The early forms of street transport were horses or even Shahajahanabad remains a living city till present housing humans carrying goods over tracks. The first improved trails about half a million people. would have been at mountain passes and through swamps. As 2.5.1 Street names of Shahajahanabad: Mughal Capital trade increased, the tracks were often flattened or widened to The seventh city of Delhi, Shahajahanabad was built in 1638 accommodate human and animal traffic, Some of these soil on the banks of river Yamuna. The two major streets of tracks were developed into broad networks, allowing Shahajahanabad were Chandni Chowk and Faiz Bazaar.

    8. THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM The Archaeological Museum a walk around The interesting Archaeological Museum next to Bada Darwaza is devoted to the archaeological finds at Purana Qila; and also the history of Delhi. PURANA The exhibits at the museum trace in chronological order the history of Delhi. Another interesting part of the museum is its QILA collection of photographs of work at the Purana Qila archaeological site. The Museum is housed in part of Purana Qila itself. The hall is part of the original fort and there is fine incised plaster, in the form of medallions, on the vaulted roof of the museum. Lal Darwaza 10. LAL DARWAZA On Mathura Road opposite Purana Qila is another structure that is often associated with Purana Qila: Lal Darwaza (`red gate’). It was built during the reign of Sher Shah Sur (the early 16th century) and is one of the few remains of Sher Garh outside of Purana Qila. It is approached via a short road flanked by thick walls made of rubble and marked by a series of recessed arches forming kiosk-like structures, which may have been shops. At the end of this short stretch is the gate, which stands between two curving bastions. The gate is dressed with red sandstone, with some buff sandstone and grey Delhi quartzite, and there are signs of decorative elements such as jharokhas and medallions which have since fallen off. Very minor traces of ornamentation do remain, for instance on the jharokha to the left is some fine blue glazed tile, along with carving. 9.

In the 3,000 years of its existence, the many deliberations, decided on two architects to design name ‘Delhi’ (or Dhillika, Dilli, Dehli,) has been applied to these many New Delhi. Edwin Landseer Lutyens, till then known mainly as an cities, all more or less adjoining each other in their physical boundary, architect of English country homes, was one. The other was Herbert some overlapping others. Invaders and newcomers to the throne, anxious Baker, the architect of the Union buildings at Pretoria. to leave imprints of their sovereign status, built citadels and settlements Lutyens’ vision was to plan a city on lines similar to other great here like Jahanpanah, Siri, Firozabad, Shahjahanabad … and, capitals of the world: Paris, Rome, and Washington DC.

In December 1911, the city hosted the Delhi avenues flanked by sprawling lawns, with impressive monuments Durbar (a grand assembly), to mark the coronation of King George V. punctuating the avenue, and the symbolic seat of power at the end— At the end of the Durbar on 12 December, 1911, King George made an this was what Lutyens aimed for, and he found the perfect geographical announcement that the capital of India was to be shifted from Calcutta location in the low Raisina Hill, west of Dinpanah (Purana Qila). to Delhi. There were many reasons behind this decision. Calcutta had Lutyens noticed that a straight line could connect Raisina Hill to become difficult to rule from, with the partition of Bengal and the Purana Qila (thus, symbolically, connecting the old with the new).

We, ISOLA Delhi Chapter, submit the following observations and objections to the report, prepared by DUAC for due consideration, through a landscape heritage perspective. As per the new Guidelines the character of the LBZ would change dramatically (to its detriment), with significant impact on the environment and character of Central Delhi. We would like to highlight the lack of consideration in the report to the Landscape Heritage of New Delhi. This includes the planned ‘Garden City’ planning as designed in 1930 as well as the landscape resource this area is today. LBZ needs to be conserved for the future, not only for its historic planning, but significantly its model landscape planning design; strategic planting; mature, verdant and diverse canopy (which took nearly a century to be established); and, the critical biodiversity it supports. Depriving the people of Delhi of the green lung that LBZ is today, will lead to further deterioration of the poor air quality that is plaguing our capital city. We as ISOLA Delhi Chapter strongly object to the LBZ Boundary and Development Guidelines Report by DUAC.
