New Delhi & Old Delhi India's capital city can be split into two distinct areas - New Delhi and Old Delhi, and while they continue to grow side by side, each retains its own charms. Old Delhi is the most historic part of the metropolis, with its origins dating back to the time of the Moghuls. In contrast, New Delhi was designed by the British during colonial times, with much of the architectural work being down to Edwin Lutyens in the 1920s and 1930s. The charm of Old Delhi lies not just in its incredible sites, but also in the general hustle and bustle created by its narrow lanes and the everyday lives lived within its confines. A traditional and authentic experience can be found here, with those keen to sample genuine Indian delicacies and snacks most likely to find their appetites sated in this part of the city. In comparison to this labyrinth of streets, New Delhi is a spacious area made up mainly of wide avenues, which feel much more European in style. They are lined with lush trees and overshadowed by imposing government buildings, creating an entirely different atmosphere. Both parts of the city are fascinating to explore and even the more modern area is nearly 100 years old. There are no formal boundaries between the two, but it is just about always possible to distinguish whether you are in New Delhi or Old Delhi. Splitting your time between both and making your own comparisons will help to understand the complex history of this remarkable place.
