DelhiBeing the site of at least 10 different regimes in the history, this capital city has been ruled by countless rulers. Each one of these rulers has built one or more monument to commemorate their respective rule in the region. Delhi is known to be one of the oldest existing cities in the world. Over the millennia, Delhi is said to have been built and destroyed 11 times during different events in the history. The oldest incarnation of the city is said to have found place in the renowned Indian mythological epic Mahabharata as Indraprastha.

The charm of Delhi lies in its ability to take forward with it the legacy, culture and heritage of the dynasties that once ruled it. The zest and spirit of this city comes to life when the traditional customs work in tandem with modern thinking of its inhabitants. So, if on one side you have narrow streets in Chandni Chowk, on the other hand, you have wide and smooth network of roads in the heart of Delhi i.e. Connaught Place.

Delhi Weather - Climate of Delhi

Delhi's climate is quite variable. It experiences all the three major seasons of the Indian Subcontinent – summer, rainfall, winter. The tourists can plan their visits according to their personal preferences by taking a note from the Delhi travel guide.

From April to June, temperatures are scorchingly hot (over 40°C is common) and, with every air-conditioner running at full blast, the city's creaking power and water infrastructure is strained to the breaking point and beyond. Monsoon rains deluge the city from July to September, flooding roads on a regular basis and bringing traffic to a standstill. In winter, especially December and January, temperatures can dip to near-zero which can feel a lot colder because central heating is largely unknown and homes are usually designed with a view to keep cool in the summers rather than warm in the winters.In addition the city is blanketed in thick fog, causing numerous flight cancellations and train delays. The shoulder seasons (Feb-Mar and Oct-Nov) are comparatively pleasant, with temperatures in the 20-30°C range, but short.
