Demonetisation has hit us hard! All Indians are going through the same phase of life these days, with no or less money. In today’s blog post, I thought to write about the same from travel angle. Delhiites have immense love for traveling, let me tell you that Delhi being a metro city has many cities in it. Delhi is a city where medieval and modern blend seamlessly together. Dotted with monuments and mega tall buildings there are many places to discover here. So, today I am going to tell you about few places where you can roam for (almost) free.
Gardens
- Lodhi Garden
- Garden of five senses
- Green Garden
- Talkatora Garden
- Shanti Vana
Heritage
- Qutab Minar
- Humayun Tomb
- Bare Khan Tomb
- Tughlaqabad Fort
- Safdarjung Tomb
- Jantar Mantar
- India Gate
- Purana Quila
Zoo & Museum
- Railway Museum
- National Museum
- Science Museum
- Dolls Museum
Hotspots
- Dilli Haat
- Hauz Khas Village
- Connaught Place
So, now you know you have a lot of places to hang around in Delhi. From malls to markets, gardens to galleries, you will never have enough here. If you have a passion for traveling and Delhi is on your bucket list, feel free to ask for advice.

That’s cool. I like to visit Humayun’s tomb because I can go from there to NFC to have shwarma.. umm
How marvelous to travel before you have responsibilities of work, perhaps your own business, or a husband, or a child. I wish I had done as you are doing and traveled more while I could!
We have same or different responsibilities, however taking a break from your busy schedule makes a wonderful memory.
Wow, this is great! So many places to visit! Great photos (and outfits, too 🙂 )Cheers!
Such a fab post! I’ve nominated you for the Liebster award 😘 Check out today’s post on my page for further info xx

Thank you:)
Great post, looking for more👍
Great pictures! I hope I get to visit Delhi some day!
You are most welcome. .
I love these pictures. So interesting to see places from around the world.
I hope one day I’ll be able to make someone plan a visit based on my blog.
Hello again my friend from around the world. 😃
May I share with you, my most recent post: https://nbrijay.com/2016/12/09/the-mexico-that-you-dont-know/
I made a comment on that.
Thank you so much for the – free – tour.
Jantar Mantar was an obsevatory built by a Rajah, correct?
Yes, by Maharaja Jai Singh. He built similar observatories in other cities too.
Jai Singh! yes, yes! Thank you for the reminder… 🙂
Delhi is a cool city.
Thanks for all thses advices 🙂 A lot of wonderful things to discover. I hope someday i’ll be able to visit Delhi.
Interesting post. I have read so much about demonisation in India and i am hoping that you are all coping well out there..my thought and prayers for a good life are with you..
Such a beautiful country and one I hope to someday visit. We have become connected to so many there that it will be a great time to meet and talk in person.
It would be lovely.
After seeing these photos, I would like to visit some day! It’s a beautiful place. 🙂
Incredible photos!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Wow
Bahut Khub.
Nyc one! Gud options..😄
Wonderful Delhi
Glad you liked Delhi.. You must visit here..
Wish I had discovered your blog when I was writing Me-YEOW!, which is set in India – specifically, Maharashtra.
Aw, unlucky me..
Actually, I was thinking I was the unlucky one – your blog would have been an excellent resource to give authenticity to the story’s background.
Aw, I hope you’ll write a sequel 😄
Me-YEOW! is book 4 of Xander de Hunter’s Sea Purrtector Files. The Red Claw (book 1) began in Jamaica, but the plot then went to Haiti and The Dominican Republic. I’m not positive where #5 will take place, but the story might pick up at Diego Garcia Island, which is still in your part of the world.
I won’t agree with Delhi Haat. Last time I went I ended up spending good chunk of my money. They do sell amazing things there. And I become a shopaholic sometimes. Haha.
Haha, you need to keep your hands tight.. No shopping during demonetisation. I added that because that’s a nice place to spend a day. All you need to do is buy a ticket. That’s it.
I know, I was just kidding. 😀 indeed it’s a great place with all the activities that go around. I loved the newly opened Kalam ji’s museum there.
Whattttttttttttttttttt?
How come I don’t know about that?
Oh yes it has opened recently. It has all the items that were used by Kalam ji. The books he read, the utensils he used.
Ok I’ll Google it. Thanks for letting me know.
You’re welcome. 🙂
Oops, I think I responded to wrong post here… I believe she made it to Delhi. I also know she’s been there during all the horribleness with the currency which she has relayed back in a personal way.
Haha, poor she then. I can imagine when we are facing problems due to demonitisation, how worst it would have affected the traveler’s. I wrote the same post after demonitisation only.
I have a friend that has been in India the last month and a half to study with a yogi and take a soul journey. Her pictures from all over have been so inspirational. I do find so much beauty in this country! xx
Oh that’s cool. You must visit here too.. We have so much to see and visit in our country.
Aren’t they close to each other? I am so bad with geography?
Sorry but they, who?
Amazing photographs!!!
Now I really feel the urge to visit the garden of the senses… why is it called so?
Oh I have made a separate post on it. You will have to wait a little bit.. I hope you are not in hurry to visit there..
Na, Not in a hurry. I am really waiting for that post, now.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful places. I hope to visit some day. 😊
You are most welcome
It’s a mystical place filled by layers.
Very nice Thank You
We will always miss your blog posts. Now all of my Thursdays are marked on my calendar.
Oh finally I have made a single follower to wait for me.. you made my day.. Thanks a ton..
Oh finally I have made a follower to wait for me.. you made my day.. Thanks a ton..
So lovely post. Good 🙂
Such a refreshing post on all the best places in Delhi worth visiting. You are truly our travel ambassador. Proud of you girl.. muah!!
Haha thanks, just one qs.. Are you a boy or girl?
haha..this is definitely ‘the’ most interesting question I’ve ever been asked. Keep guessing. 🙂
A girl, now I know.. 😁
Actually, a woman. 😀
Always nice to ‘travel’ without leaving home! It is amazing how many places most people have near them that they have not visited.
I visited few places for this post where I have never been before.. so yay I am glad now.
Informative post.. Lovely photographs.. Planning to visit some day! Thanks! 🙂
You are most welcome..
All are beautiful scenes. However, Humayun’s tomb takes the cake.
Have you ever been there? Yes, that’s a nice place.
Everybody reads the comments section. I am new but I know the rules.
Ok all the best to you then
Thanks, I will be careful in the future while interacting with others. Hope you enjoyed chatting with me. If not, I guess its my fault. Goodbye for now and I am following you as I like reading your post.
Reblogged this on oshriradhekrishnabole.
Thank you for the reblog
Don’t get angry as you’ll get wrinkles on your face a piece of advice from My Theory.
No, I don’t get angry on stupid things. Take a piece of advice from me now.. stay at your home always otherwise any dog or cat could bite you and you might end up at any hospital. Aham, you can also do one thing, freeze yourself, in that way you will never get old and your fear of wrinkles won’t annoy you.
That’s was not for you.
I was giving the advice to every commentator who were giving feedbacks to your post. But a nice advice will share with someone.
You don’t need to justify yourself now.. Nobody here is reading your comment except me. Thank you for your concern you have shown towards me or everyone.
I have just started blogging and my friend told me to interact with other bloggers that’s the reason I am writing to you and I was not justifying myself. Never judge people unless you have met them.
Yes it’s good to interact. But never offend anyone. Sometimes we speak more out of courtesy. Nice meeting you.
I hope you don’t charge any advisory fee for your advice and nice meeting you.
No, I just paid you for your advice. Tit for Tat.
Looks like a crazy place to visit in the pics. Just joking a polluted place to be in.
That pollution occured for few days. Now it’s gone. And I must say lOng gone. Problem occurs in every part of the world. Then people should sit in their home always.
Everyone in the country is talking about Demonetisation which is something new apart from Indo-Pak relations and your post is nice but you should also talk about other places which are in crisis rather than the capital. Its a fine post and a hot topic for discussion. Good luck for your next post.
I live in the capital of our country. So I know about it. I will try to write about other cities in future.
This is informative and helpful. You’re country is blessed with rich heritage, culture and mesmerizing structures. Your photos makes the places look very inviting 👍👌
Great post!
Thank you. I am glad you liked it.. you must visit here
i like your costume selection dr.❤🌹😘
Haha, that’s a unique comment..thanks
Hey! You are so strong! Moved two train bogies with your hands! (top photo) 🙂
Oh yea, I am lucky these were not working..
a wonderful post indeed, Falak! The gardens and the historical buildings make Delhi a must visit, Pictures with you in the foreground make it twice beautiful 🙂
Thank you for your lovely comment.
Bonjour Falak,
Tes photos sont très réussies.
Merci pour tous ces beaux partages… Clin d’œil d’Auvergne en France.
https://lewisfoxy2.files.wordpress.com/2016/11/thank-you.gif
Bonjour,
Merci pour votre commentaire.
Vous apportez de la joie sur ma page.
That’s a very wonderful review of your city by you dear Falak …loved reading it
That’s wonderful. …I am packed with travelling from home to college , college 6 hours and again college to home …you know about the bhid and dhakka Buckki in a public transport bus of metro cities ..exhausted and tired I return home in the evening twilight hours …a fresh with warm water followed by dinner and studies up to late night upto 1 am. Then sleep upto 730 am…the cycle continues and has a break only on Sunday …I feel tired and don’t have any mood to go outside on Sundays. ..but by force I am sent out to vegetable market and groceries. …I feel like taking a break.
Oh you keep yourself occupied too much.. I have been through the same phase but however tired I am, I never skip the opportunity to travel. I love traveling and I love taking small breaks even from my tight schedule. Let me tell you one incident- I was doing a job and we used to have 1hour lunch break over there. One day I was in mood, I called a friend and went 5km away from the office to have have lunch outside and came back within the time. It was challenging and full of fun.
There isn’t any other alternative too …however I don’t miss any opportunity on the last day of exams …after the exams it’s fun and enjoyment time ….along with my batch mates we go for a movie together followed by a mall visit and small purchases and then finally settling for a meals in a good restaurant.
Well, you know what they say: The best things in life are free!
Wow, I love what is said above.
Thanks, it’s actually from this song from the 40s:
A truly wonderful post and one I enjoyed very much. This really is the definitive guide to the beautiful places that one can visit in Delhi.
Book marking this for my next visit!
Thank you very much.
I just had just a small confusion…if the place or you look more beautiful.you look stunning
Thank you for the compliment
you don’t need to be rich to enjoy the best things in life.

Compliments of a lovely lady named Falak.
Thank you very much for the reblog and amazing line..
You are very graciously welcome.
I would definitely do the railroad museum.
Perfect choice.
Amazing post that you went to so many places! I love the picture of you and the train! The tomb buildings are amazing.
Oh I love traveling. And I had to visit many places a day for these photographs. I got really tired but I loved it.
A great post very informative too! With so many beautiful images. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it.
This shows a lot of amazing places to go for not much money–whether traveling to Delhi or having a staycation.
Yea you put brain in it.. well said.
So many beautiful locations! Some of these building look incredible! x
They are the heritage of our city.. So lovely and incredible..

Being a delhite I loved your post.
Wow that’s cool..
I know being a delhite is cool😀
Wow!!! So much to see. Amazing. I love the: Garden of five senses. You live on a beautiful country. I’ve always wanted to go to Delhi,
the flights from here are a bit expensive. You look so happy on your pics, I’m glad for you.
Garden of five senses, Ahh.. I have made a separate post on it which I’ll publish by next month.. Don’t miss it please. You’ll get to know my opinion about it.
I look forward to reading it. I hope it includes some of those beautiful places you been sharing with us. Man, you are so blessed living in such a nice and rich in history place. Have you travel to Egypt or Greece? -God willing next year I will go to one of those country’s.
That’s cool. I haven’t been there but yes I would love to visit Greece in future.
If you ever come to USA. Let me know. This country does not have such a beautiful rich historical and cultural landmarks like your country but we do have beautiful places to see as well. I live in TX. I’m also preparing a Blog about the parts of Mexico where I grew up. I’m sure you will like reading about it.
yes that sounds cool. I will surely read it.
Amazing pictures of Delhi. I’d love to visit sometime. Looks fun.
You are welcome here..

🙂
Oh my god😍😍😍
It’s really great.
I wrote a blog on Delhi too. Please read if you get time. 🙂
The one you wrote when you came here, in which you said that you didn’t like hauz khas village? I guess I read that already.
Yes.yes..wow you remember that😍😊
Thank you. 😃
Hehe, generally I like the posts but when I make any comment on any post, I remember what I said. .
Interesting and informative post this is. I love the pictures! I am also curious that how did you manage to take such lovely pictures with almost no public around. I assume such places are mostly crowded with visitors in general.
Best
Haha.. you have made a great point here.. I managed to send people away except India Gate.. Crowd was mad over there.
I must appreciate your deep efforts to have just perfect pictures there! Haha.. I’m amazed how you actually managed to have a clear background! It must have been a maddening job. 😀
Yes & I am lucky I have a great photographer.. He handles everything 😋
thumbs up 😄
Lovely post. Thank you
Glad you liked it
