Sabarish

After a hectic day of travelling to Agra and seeing the Taj under a hot afternoon sun and later visiting Fatehpur Sikhri and lots of walking around, a tired bunch of us were forced to eat at a roadside dhabha on the way back to Delhi because our van had broken down and had gone for repairs. Ashwin (manglooru) here poses with an earthen cup filled with really tasty lassi that we all totally enjoyed so much that we ended up having it again and again!

I left this thread of my Noida and Delhi trip quite some time back and finally get some time off work to continue it.

The evening after visiting Humayun’s Tomb, I got to experience Delhi’s night life! Or atleast some aspects of it!!

Disha and her friends

I met Disha and a bunch of her friends at CP (Connaught Place) and they took me to some places there. We then went to Pindara Road for dinner and finally went to India Gate for the amazing ‘Kala Katta Chuski’ (a lot of ice stuffed on a stick and dipped in sugar syrup available in different flavours)!

India Gate by night

It was a nice experience and I really liked the atmosphere at India that late in the night. It was still packed with a lot of people and kids and noise and vendors selling everything from balloons to ice creams!

Near India Gate

What an amazing city!

When I was at Noida in May, coincidentally a huge bunch of friends landed in Delhi, on their way to Sar Pass for a trek. Thanks to them I could go to some unexpected places and didn’t have to go around to several places on my ‘To See List’ alone! We went to quite a few places, including Agra, Fatehpur Sikhri, Amritsar, Wagah Border and several locations in Delhi.

The following is a video compiled by Sangeetha and Vinayak with the photos taken on the trip!
