Delhi
The capital of India, the third biggest city of the Subcontinent with approx. 8 million inhabitants was stop and relaxing time during our organized round trip.
We explored old and new Delhi and could see the very big difference between modern shopping centres, boulevards, the rich colonial government quarter and the old Delhi with its bazaars, small handicraft lanes and the largest mosque of India. Splendour and misery, big business beside poorest live, Hinduism and Islam, exclusive shopping malls beside traditional markets, traffic chaos and peaceful parks, the burning place of Gandhi, all that is Delhi, one of the most fascinating capitals of the third world.
To go by PUT PUT, one of the main public vehicles of India was one of the largest challenges for us, really a big adventure which you can see all kinds of live at the border of the streets.
