This is a rather long walk from Rashtrapati Bhavan to India gate (apx. 3 kilometers). The way itself is mostly of lawns next to (filthy) water canals and can be a bit overwhelming due to the heat, so you might as well go for a tuk-tuk or a rickshaw.

We visited this place against advice of some friends who had been there as well as locals. I like some of the work that Ghandi did, but this place is just a small, expensive memorial for the man. Nothing great or special and one can safely skip it unless you want to visit it for some personal reason. We visited... More

Actually interpreting to `kings way', Rajpath was constructed by the British to infringe and inspire. It was expected to scare and drive home the focus that they were in-control. Indeed, today, when you make your far up on Raisina Hill, you let in the wanted effect that the British Empire was needing to take off. Rajpath is the street that... More

The Main road between India gate and rashtrapati Bhawan becomes the centrestage during the Republic day celebrations and becomes lively during the summer evenings with people enjoying themselves on the garden lawns while playing, boating, eating or just strolling !!
