Welcome to New Delhi!

New Delhi is the capital city of India. It is a small but very important part of the big city called Delhi. Imagine a big puzzle — New Delhi is one special piece in the middle of it all!

Important Places

In New Delhi, you can find very important buildings. These are like the heart of the country’s government. There is the Rashtrapati Bhavan, where the President of India lives. Next door stands the Sansad Bhavan, where leaders make big decisions for the country. And there is the Supreme Court, where important judges help keep fairness.

A City With History

New Delhi didn’t always look like this. Long ago, in 1911, leaders decided to build a new capital city. Famous architects from Britain drew beautiful plans. Workers spent many years building streets, buildings, and gardens. Finally, in 1931, the city was opened for everyone. Today, people remember this time when New Delhi began.

Fun Things to See

New Delhi is full of places to explore! You can visit big parks like Lodi Gardens and walk among old trees and quiet lakes. The National Museum holds treasures from long ago — like old stones, paintings, and toys from history. And don’t miss the bright lights and shops of Connaught Place, where families love to stroll and eat yummy food.

Traveling Around

Getting around New Delhi is easy and fun! The city has a special train called the Delhi Metro. It’s fast, clean, and helps millions of people move every day. Big airplanes land at Indira Gandhi International Airport, making New Delhi a busy hub for travelers from all over the world. Roads also connect the city to nearby places like Gurgaon and Noida.
