Most popular attractions in New Delhi, India
1. Qutub Minar
New Delhi
A towering icon of Mughal architecture and history, Red Fort showcases grand ramps and intricate sandstone and marble work. Walk ramparts, explore imperial halls, and catch the evening sound-and-light show.
2. Red Fort
New Delhi
Quick facts: Massive red sandstone walls stretch for about two kilometers, punctuated by towering bastions and dramatic gateways that frame a theatrical entrance. Every August 15th the nation's leader hoists the flag from the main gate and delivers a speech to thousands gathered below, turning the complex into a living stage of modern ceremonies.
Highlights: A glittering interior hall displays intricate pietra dura floral inlays and once held the famed Peacock Throne, which vanished after Nadir Shah's 1739 raid. At night the sound and light show bathes carved marble and red walls in color, while recitations and recorded court music make the stones feel like they still whisper Mughal courtly secrets.
