Then head to the awe-inspiring Lotus Temple, a Bahá'í House of Worship that has won numerous architectural awards for its breathtaking lotus-inspired design.
Visit the majestic Humayun's Tomb, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the final resting place of Mughal Emperor Humayun.

Wrap up your trip by exploring two iconic Delhi landmarks - the 800-year-old Qutub Minar, the world's tallest minaret, and the famed India Gate, a towering archway that stands as a national monument and war memorial.
