Designed by notable English architects and proclaimed India's capital in 1931, New Delhi sits in the middle of a sprawling metropolitan area with a population of over 25 million.

Change things up with these side-trips from New Delhi: Gurugram (Gurgaon) (DLF Cyber Hub, Museo Camera, &more), Akshardham (in Gandhinagar) and Bhindawas Wildlife Sanctuary (in Jhajjar). There's much more to do: admire the landmark architecture of Humayun's Tomb, admire the natural beauty at Akshardham, indulge in some culinary diversions at a local gastronomic tour, and steep yourself in history at Gurudwara Bangla Sahib.
