Though many people think that yoga is just about stretching. However, while stretching is definitely involved, yoga is all about creating balance in the body through developing both strength as well as flexibility. This is achieved by performing several postures and poses, each of which has their specific physical advantages.<br /><div><br />Today, though, it looks like a hot new trend, yoga actually traces back to more than 3,000 years ago in India. The word yoga comes from Sanskrit, which means to "yoke," or bring together the mind, body, and spirit.<br /></div><br /><div>Given below is a list of different Yoga Clubs in Delhi &amp; NCR - </div><div><br /><strong>Ashu Yoga</strong></div><div>Govindpuri, Kalkaji</div><div>Delhi - 110019</div><div>Phone: 011-26420900, 26222015</div><div>Website: <a href="http://www.ashuyoga.com/">http://www.ashuyoga.com/</a> </div><div><br /><strong>Fitness Solution</strong></div><div>#E-193</div><div>Gurudwara, Greater Kailash II</div><div>Delhi - 110048P</div><div>hone: 2921650</div><div>Website: <a href="http://www.fitnesolution.com/">http://www.fitnesolution.com/</a> </div><div><br /><strong>Himmat Singh Yoga Centre</strong></div><div>Nishant Park, Uttam Nagar</div><div>Delhi - 110059</div><div>Landmark: Near Kakrolla </div><div>Phone: 65128998 </div><div><br /><strong>Kiran Yoga Centre</strong></div><div>#498/4</div><div>Ram Nagar, Krishna Nagar </div><div>H.O.

Over the years, Delhi has emerged as one of the hottest destinations for engineering education because of several reasons.</p><p>Engineering is one such discipline that is unique in various respects Unique in the sense, which unlike other professions, engineering is an application-oriented and training-based discipline and therefore necessitates state-of-the-art infrastructure and training facilities. </p><p>The three main criteria that are used as YARDSTICK for measuring the quality of any Engineering institution are given below. It is important for an engineering aspirant to take a note of these before arriving at any decision with respect to his/her final choice.<br /></p><p><strong>Infrastructure &amp; facilities:</strong><br />All across the world, the engineering colleges, which are famous for their world class labs are the ones that always top the list for best engineering colleges. Most of the engineering institutes based in Delhi can boast of their sophisticated labs and training facilities in the field of Applied Chemistry, Applied Physics, Electronics, Computer Programming, Microprocessor, Electronic Devices, Optoelectronics, Communication and Digital Processing and Geotechnology, Structures, Water Resources, Energy Management, Industrial Automation, Non-Conventional Energy Sources, Industrial Engineering, Ergonomics and Digital Systems.<br /><br /><strong>Academic Staff:</strong><br />Another key criterion to determine the reputation of an engineering institution is the intellectual capability and experience of its academic staff. A perfect mix of sound infrastructural facilities coupled with the qualified and experienced faculties can only bring the best in students as none of the factor alone can groom students effectively.<br /><br /><strong>Campus Placement:</strong><br />In present days, an increasingly large number of engineering institutions invite business giants including MNCs and domestic business leaders to recruit their institutions. These campus placements have become an parameter that can be used to judge the quality and reputation of an engineering college.<br /><br />Branches Offered in Different Engineering Colleges -<br />Broadly speaking, all the engineering institution offers the following basic streams:<br /></p><ul><li>Civil Engineering </li><li>Mechanical Engineering </li><li>Electrical Engineering </li><li>Electronics &amp; Communication Engineering </li><li>Computer Engineering </li><li>Architecture Engineering<br /></li></ul><p><strong>Top Engineering Colleges of Delhi</strong></p><ul><li>Delhi College of Engineering</li><li>Netaji Subhash Institute of Technology</li><li>IIT Delhi</li><li>Faculty of Engineering, Jamia University</li></ul><p>Besides these, dozens of polytechnique institutes spread across the city impart training in various basic functions of Engineering.<br /><br />Given below are the names and addresses of various engineering colleges in Delhi –<br /><br /><strong>Indian Institue of Technology,</strong><br />IIT P.O.

This is due to the fact that there is no definitive survey, which lists only the top management institutes in Delhi. Most of the popular surveys, such as the India Today AG Neilson Survey, Outlook C Fore survey, Business Week B School Survey, CSR GHRDC Survey are done on an all India basis.<br /><br />Here in this page, we have churned out a list of the top B-Schools in Delhi by scanning different B school surveys of India over the last 3 years. The list conprises the name and addresses of the top MBA colleges in Delhi &amp; NCR, along with the websites of these colleges. The list is made considering different surveys and various factors, such as placements, faculty, reputation, infrastructure, library, among others.<br /><br />Though extreme care and attention has been taken to get the most accurate information on the best B Schools &amp; colleges in Delhi, we will not be shouldering any responsibility if someone tends to disagree with the list of top management institutes in Delhi that has been put up here.<br /><br />Given below is the List of Top B-Schools in Delhi and NCR- </p><ol><li>Faculty of Management Studies, FMS - <a href="http://www.fms.edu/">http://www.fms.edu/</a> </li><li>Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, IIFT - <a href="http://www.iift.edu/iift/index.asp">http://www.iift.edu/iift/index.asp</a> </li><li>Management Development Institute, MDI, Gurgaon - <a href="http://www.mdi.ac.in/home/home.asp">http://www.mdi.ac.in/home/home.asp</a> </li><li>Institute of Management Tehnology, IMT, Ghaziabad - <a href="http://www.imt.edu/">http://www.imt.edu/</a> </li><li>Department of Management Studies, IIT Delhi - <a href="http://www.iitd.ernet.in/deptt/ms/">http://www.iitd.ernet.in/deptt/ms/</a> </li><li>FORE School of Management, New Delhi - <a href="http://www.fsm.ac.in/">http://www.fsm.ac.in/</a> </li><li>International Management Institute, IMI. - <a href="http://www.imi.edu/imi/">http://www.imi.edu/imi/</a> </li><li>Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management, LBSIM. - <a href="http://www.lbsim.ac.in/">http://www.lbsim.ac.in/</a> </li><li>Birla Institute of Management Technology, Bimtech - <a href="http://www.bimtech.ac.in/">http://www.bimtech.ac.in/</a> </li><li>Amity Business School, Noida - <a href="http://www.amity.edu/abs/">http://www.amity.edu/abs/</a> </li><li>New Delhi institute of Management - <a href="http://www.ndimdelhi.org/">http://www.ndimdelhi.org/</a> </li><li>Indian Institute of Planning and Management - <a href="http://www.iipm.edu/">http://www.iipm.edu/</a> </li><li>Apeejay School of Management - <a href="http://www.apeejay.edu/asm/home.htm">http://www.apeejay.edu/asm/home.htm</a> </li><li>Jagan Institute of Management Studies, Delhi - <a href="http://www.jimsindia.org/">http://www.jimsindia.org/</a></li></ol><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3439021925369818701-4624527016931039378?l=guide-delhi.blogspot.com'/></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/rWMA/~4/Q5qpQ4L-ooE" height="1" width="1"/>Ujjwal Tiwarinoreply@blogger.com0http://guide-delhi.blogspot.com/2008/06/top-b-schools-in-delhi-ncr.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439021925369818701.post-24799835925436598562008-05-29T01:49:00.000-07:002009-04-20T11:21:34.129-07:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SD5ui8k52cI/AAAAAAAAAH8/jqxmz084GjI/s1600-h/khan-market1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205719765942393282" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SD5ui8k52cI/AAAAAAAAAH8/jqxmz084GjI/s320/khan-market1.jpg" border="0" /></a> It would not be wrong to call Delhi as the metropolis of markets. It brags of markets of all types — if it has glitzy malls, it also has noble shopping colonnades such as Connaught Place. But Gaffar Market, in Karol Bagh, has always been in a different class.<br /><br />Call it a grey market if you want, but for several decades now it has been a popular one-stop-shop for those searching ‘imported’ goods at less than the actual prices. Garments, eloectronic goods, cosmetics, crockery, toys, mobile phones, shoes, you name it, and it’s here.<br /><br />The market, where various shops have no names, sees a carnival-like atmosphere most time of the day, crowded as it is with shoppers from all across the country. Imported will be the right word for both shoppers as well as customers. In this market, nothing sells except the imported goods.<br /><br />According to an electronic goods shopper in Gaffar market, "This is the only place in the country where one can get a wide variety of gadgets and gizmos much before they are launched in India. In fact, at times you can get here what you will not get even in Europe." The iPhone, acclaimed by Time magazine as Invention of the Year, was available in Gaffar market months before it was launched in Europe.<br /><br /><strong>No Bill, No Cry</strong><br />Similarly, PlayStation 3 (PS3) — the most recent gizmo for video game lovers — was available at Gaffar a month before its official launch in India. According to a shop owner, “Gaffar Market is a place for those who do not look for bills or guarantees, but like to stay ahead”. And while speaking to people, it seems there is no shortage of such customers. “I have come to purchase a 32" Sony Bravia LCD TV that the company launched recently. I bought it for Rs 37,000, which is much less than the actual price, and I am not bothered about the bill,” says a buyer who have come all the way from Meerut.<br /><br /><strong>Cheap Chinaware</strong><br />The market is also popular among the youngsters. You can find a winter jacket for Rs 600<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SD5ujck52dI/AAAAAAAAAIE/3foBFw186o8/s1600-h/grey-mkt-mobi-players-edit.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205719774532327890" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SD5ujck52dI/AAAAAAAAAIE/3foBFw186o8/s320/grey-mkt-mobi-players-edit.jpg" border="0" /></a> - 800, shoes for Rs 400 - 600. While most shoes are Chinese, the garments are primarily from Thailand. Shopkeepers even endure testimony that these products are as good as any original branded product. But the rip-offs apparently have many takers. A student pursuing engineering who lives in Punjabi Bagh, says, “I purchased a winter jacket for Rs 800, and it beats any brand in terms of finish, style and quality".<br /><br />However, though the prices are a steal in this market, you need to be a bit careful in negotiation to get the best deal. According to shopkeepers, post economic liberalisation, the market has lost some of its customers, however, it is still going strong, thanks to the numerous dedicated customers who come looking for latest fashion cheap goods.<br /><br />Says a garment shop owner, “till 15 years back Gaffar market was known for cosmetics and garments. There used to be such a rush of customers, which we often had to make them wait outside the shop. Now it is more known for being an electronics market".<br /><br />The market is also popular among domestic tourists who constitute the biggest chunk of the customers today. “I sell Chinese shoes, which are economical, and of good quality. 70% of my customers are tourists who come all the way from Bihar, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Orissa", says a shoe shop owner.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3439021925369818701-2479983592543659856?l=guide-delhi.blogspot.com'/></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/rWMA/~4/W_zjhwyGicY" height="1" width="1"/>Ujjwal Tiwarinoreply@blogger.com0http://guide-delhi.blogspot.com/2008/05/gaffar-market.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439021925369818701.post-21976638407688702062008-05-21T06:25:00.000-07:002009-04-20T11:25:54.419-07:00While visiting a place as a tourist, you would always be interested in knowing the place and most important of all you would surely like to carry along some useful tips about that place.<br /><br />It is all-important that you are well aware of the traditions, culture and customs of Delhi before you step out for a ourney.

The weekly performances gather huge crowds who throng the narrow lanes around the tomb, jostling each other and bumping into the food vendors frying traditional snacks on primuses outside their stores.<br /><br />The streets become almost impossible to negotiate, with the occasional cycle-rickshaw trying to plunge through the melee and scattering pedestrians in all directions. Hundreds of beggars line the streets, pouncing on any Westerner who ventures through.<br /><br />Try to hand them a few coins and the beggars will pull at your fingers as they grab the money from you. They're trying to slip off any rings you might be wearing, and pocket them too.<br />But it's difficult entirely to begrudge them. Many are in a woeful state. Less easy to forgive are the shysters who have set up a profitable little racket making a commission off them. As you enter the warren of lanes, they approach you with books of tickets. The idea is you then hand a ticket to each beggar, which entitles them to free food from the shop that sold you the tickets.<br />It seems like the perfect system. The ticket-sellers will even tell you it was set up by the Muslim religious authorities here. Except it wasn't. Not according to the chief imam, who says it's a scam. The ticket-sellers take their own cut on every ticket they sell. It's a business for profit, and the beggars are being exploited.<br /><br />F F F<br />I love Delhi traffic lights. They have the word "Relax" written across the middle of the red light, where old-fashioned British ones used to have "Stop". It's very Indian, an unexpectedly human touch in an official context. Because for all India's addiction to bureaucracy, it's also a place that revels in those little touches of originality, like the anti-drink-driving signs that say: "Whisky is risky on the road".<br /><br />But the Delhi traffic lights are also providing some much-needed advice to the city's drivers. Delhi driving is so dangerous that the municipal Blue Line buses have become notorious for the shocking number of pedestrians killed by their drivers every year.<br /><br />Delhi is not the only city I've been where drivers sneak through a petrol station forecourt to avoid stopping at a red light. But it is the only city I've been where so many do it that they cause a traffic jam inside the petrol station.<br /><br />Mind you, there are sometimes some odd obstacles to manoeuvre around on Delhi's roads. Driving home late at night, you might suddenly see a huge, dark shape looming through the winter fogs. It's the city authorities, trimming back the grand old trees that line the city's roads, on elephant- back.<br /><br />Using elephants for this is perfectly sensible. They have the height easily to reach the highest branches and, with their colossal appetites, they devour all the trimmed leaves and branches, doing away with the need for clearing them up.<br /><br />It makes sense, too, for this to happen late at night. After all, an elephant in the road by day would cause huge traffic jams (actually this often happens). But it would perhaps be wiser if the authorities found some way of lighting the elephant.<br /><br />But that's not the strangest of Delhi's animal paradoxes. The one I can't work out is why Delhi zoo bothers to exhibit monkeys, when the streets of the city are filled with the self-same monkeys living wild, and making a nuisance of themselves.<br /><br />But the zoo has several cages of monkeys, round which visitors eagerly congregate. Once, I saw the surreal scene of a crowd staring at a monkey through the bars, while an identical monkey picked its way through the grass behind them unnoticed.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3439021925369818701-6724952434126636349?l=guide-delhi.blogspot.com'/></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/rWMA/~4/wsoei4ZyB1M" height="1" width="1"/>Ujjwal Tiwarinoreply@blogger.com0http://guide-delhi.blogspot.com/2008/05/delhi-stories-relax-say-traffic-lights.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439021925369818701.post-52420301825269867642008-05-14T08:44:00.000-07:002009-04-20T11:26:40.106-07:00<strong>(Story about Spending a weekend in India's most happening m<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsQbs1pIxI/AAAAAAAAAGM/dyalCGwYaBk/s1600-h/300741165_f5d5bdcd32.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200268262808036114" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsQbs1pIxI/AAAAAAAAAGM/dyalCGwYaBk/s320/300741165_f5d5bdcd32.jpg" border="0" /></a>etropolis)</strong><br /><div><div><div>[Text-originally published in The New York Times-by Somini Sengupta]</div><div></div><br /><div>A seat of power for more than a 1000 years, Delhi, the capital of India is a survivor of conquest and change. The Lodi and Mughal dynasties ruled this area, as did the British, till the time it was again transformed by the refugees of partition. Presently, new money has conquered the region, that includes New Delhi, the capital of a fast changing India. Spiraling rents have put a Swarovski shop where a small independent bookshop once stood, and in the same market, a shop known as It’s All About Bling sells spangly earrings. Thankfully, much of the execiting history has survived, enabling allowing the visitors to travel easily through the accordion pleats of time.<br /><br /><strong>Friday<br />4 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>1) SUNSET TOMB</strong><br />This is a city of ruins and none is more elegantly preserved than Humayun's To<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsRdM1pIzI/AAAAAAAAAGc/p-55iGBkAA0/s1600-h/humayun.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200269388089467698" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsRdM1pIzI/AAAAAAAAAGc/p-55iGBkAA0/s320/humayun.jpg" border="0" /></a>mb, a precursor to the Taj Mahal and an early example of Mughal building art. Constructed in the 1560s for Humayun, the second Mughal emperor, the domed mausoleum has an elaborate garden that is potted with red sandstone tombs, gates and a mosque (admission fee is Rs. 250 for foreigners). Savor it at the golden end of the day.</div><br /><div><strong>6 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>2) ART NOW</strong></div><div>The new prosperity has spawned a thriving contemporary art scene. Many galleries are within a 15-minute ride into South Delhi, and new exhibitions generally open on Fridays. The Neeti Bagh neighborhood has Nature Morte (A-1 Neeti Bagh; 91-11-4174-0215; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.naturemorte.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.naturemorte.com</a><a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.naturemorte.com">w.naturemorte.com</a>) and Talwar Gallery (C-84 Neeti Bagh; 91-11-4605-0307; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.talwargallery.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.talwargallery.com</a>). In the nearby area, Defence Colony has Aryan Art Gallery (D-25 Defence Colony; 91-11-4155-1277; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.aryanartgallery.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.aryanartgallery.com</a>) and Vadehra Art Gallery (D-40 Defence Colony; 91-11-2461-5368; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.vadehraart.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.vadehraart.com</a>). Palette is on the top floor of a house in Golf Links (14 Golf Links; 91-11-4174-3034; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.paletteartgallery.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.paletteartgallery.com</a>). Consult TimeOut Delhi and other local magazines for listings.<br /></div><div><strong>8 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>3) ART OF THE PALATE</strong></div><div>To continue the sensory overload, head towards Basant Lok Market, a buzzing middle-class shopping place in Vasant Vihar, in the southwest sector, whose prime attraction is the restaurant - Punjabi by Nature (11 Basant Lok Market; 91-11-5151-6665; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.punjabibynature.in">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.punjabibynature.in</a><a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.punjabibynature.in">w.punjabibynature.in</a>). Everything about this place is large and loud, along with the food. You can try the vodka gol gappa aperitif: crispy shells filled with a spiced vodka shot and popped into the mouth whole for a hot, boozy explosion. </div><div> </div><div>Carnivores: You can try the tandoor-roasted lamb or the fish tikka. Vegetarians must make do with overspiced, tandoor roasted broccoli. For mellower non-Punjabi fare, go to the Defence Colony market and prepare to stand in line with Delhi chowhounds at Swagath (14 Defence Colony market; 91-11-2433-7538; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.swagath.in">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.swagath.in</a>), for south Indian seafood dishes. Not to be missed: squid in butter garlic sauce and Chettinad-style prawns. Dinner for two runs about 2,000 rupees, at either restaurant (not counting the vodka gol gappas).</div><br /><div><strong>10 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>4) ICE CREAM RUN</strong></div><div>For dessert, head towards one of several of ice cream vendors in front of India Gate, where balloons, cotton candy and the cool night air provide an evening picnic.<br /></div><br /><div><strong>Saturday8 a.m.</strong></div><div><strong>5) <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsQtc1pIyI/AAAAAAAAAGU/lxlZrbzFk48/s1600-h/walking-old-delhi.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200268567750714146" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsQtc1pIyI/AAAAAAAAAGU/lxlZrbzFk48/s320/walking-old-delhi.jpg" border="0" /></a>OLD GLORY</strong></div><div>Take a taxi to the 17th-century Red Fort and Jama Masjid mosque early in the morning, a time when they are most glorious. Then give yourself the rest of the morning to take in the uninterrupted life of the walled city of King Shah Jahan, also known as Old Delhi. Every street is a unique world in its own, devoted to wedding cards or auto parts or freshly roasted spices. One of the liveliest is Kinari Bazaar, a crafters’ paradise bursting with haberdasheries, bead shops and vendors of bright red wedding turbans, alongside the crumbling mansions. This is also a portrait of the head-load economy of old India, with porters ferrying everything from bananas to on their heads.</div><br /><div><strong></strong></div><div><strong>1 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>6) TRANS-DELHI EXPRESS</strong></div><div>The chaos of the old city mixes in the spick-and-span Chandni Chowk station of the Delhi Metro. Eight minutes and 8 rupees later, you are at Rajiv Chowk station, in the modern heart of Delhi - Connaught Place. Retail chains are fast taking over the early 20th-century colonnades, however, several independent bookshops, jewelers and gun dealers — and several lunch options — are still there. Few beat the buffet at the 1911 Restaurant in the Imperial Hotel (Janpath; 91-11-2334-1234; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.theimperialindia.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.theimperialindia.com</a>). For 3,000 rupees for two, you can opt from warm calamari, crisp rucola and tiramisù. For unusual regional dishes, try the Mosaic (M 45/1 Connaught Place; 91-11-2341-6842). Dishes include Bengal shrimp steamed in coconut and tart South Indian spinach with rice. Lunch for two, 800 rupees.</div><div><strong></strong> </div><div><strong>3 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>7) SITAR SHOPPING</strong></div><div>To walk off your feast, you can try your hand at shopping. For table linens, quilts or kurtis, there’s Fabindia (B-28 Connaught Place, Inner Circle; 91-11-4151-3371; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.fabindia.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.fabindia.com</a>) and Soma (K-44 Connaught Place; 91-11-2341-6003; www.somashop.com) opposite the PVR Cinema. Boho chic is the specialty of People Tree (8 Regal Building, Parliament Street; 91-11-2334-0699; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.peopletreeonline.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.peopletreeonline.co</a><a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.peopletreeonline.com">m</a>), and a few steps away, the legendary A. Godin &amp; Company (1 Regal Building, Parliament Street; 91-11-2336-2809) sells sitars and tablas. Keep walking down Parliament Street, past a sprawling observatory called Jantar Mantar, to the city’s public soapbox. When Parliament is in session, groups line up to protest along this street, whether college students opposed to affirmative action or farmers aggrieved by loan sharks.</div><div><br /><strong>5 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>8) FASHION ROW</strong></div><div>If you want to go upmarket, you can go to the Lodi Colony main market to check out two of India’s most innovative designers: the understated Rajesh Pratap Singh and the overstated Manish Arora. Singh (9 Lodi Colony Main Market; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.pratap.ws">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.pratap.ws</a>) offers a muted palette, and his cuts are clean and lean — may be too lean if you happen to have hips. Men’s shirts and women’s blouses start around 6,000 rupees. Manish Arora (3 Lodi Colony Main Market; 91-11-2464-8898; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.manisharora.ws">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.manisharora.ws</a>) is loud and cheeky; a black velvet tunic appliquéd with tiny clock parts goes for just under 10,000 rupees. If you are interested in exploring Indian crafts, skip the designer row in favor of Dilli Haat (C-126 Naraina Industrial Area; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.dillihaat.com">http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.dillihaat.c</a><a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/www.dillihaat.com">om</a>), an outdoor bazaar where artisans peddle everything from hand-knitted socks to Madhubani-style paintings.</div><br /><div><strong>8 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>9) UPMARKET TASTES</strong></div><div>The young, rich and vibrant have many more watering holes than ever before. Smoke House Grill (Vipps Center, Masjid Moth; 91-11-4143-5530) occupies two floors in the Greater Kailash II neighborhood, and its gimmick is smoked food. For vegetarians, the offerings include smoked artichoke ravioli; for others, smoked chicken and fennel soup, or prawn and calamari ajilo with a warm, subtle red pepper bite. If you are interested in having a proper dinner, book a table upstairs. Dinner for two may cost around 5,000 rupees. The bar menu downstairs is limited, unless you intend to gorge on apple mojitos (350 rupees) and admire D.J. Cheenu.</div><br /><div><strong>11 p.m.</strong></div><div><strong>10) POOLSIDE COCKTAILS</strong></div><div>For a nightcap, you may head across the dark courtyard to Kuki (E-7 Masjid Moth Complex; 91-11-2922-5241), a tony disco where the cover charge ranges from zero to 2,000 rupees a couple, and on Fridays and Saturdays, “gents” without arm candy are turned away. Better value is the shimmering poolside bar Aqua, at the Park Hotel (15 Parliament Street; 91-11-2374-3000; <a href="http://thedelhiwalla.blogspot.com/2008/03/newdelhi.theparkhotels.com">newdelhi.theparkhotels.com</a>). A disco ball hovers by the pool and admission is free.</div><br /><div><strong>Sunday9 a.m.</strong></div><div><strong>11) YOGI RETREAT</strong></div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsS7c1pI0I/AAAAAAAAAGk/-buxtOyDUqY/s1600-h/lod.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200271007292138306" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCsS7c1pI0I/AAAAAAAAAGk/-buxtOyDUqY/s320/lod.jpg" border="0" /></a> <div>The city’s pièce de résistance, also its green lung, is Lodhi Gardens, a free, quiet sanctuary for parakeets and lovers. Early mornings are for yogis - saluting sun, fitness lovers, influential bureaucrats on power walks and chipmunks and doves drinking from the same puddle. There are also 100-plus species of trees and tombs dating back to the 1400s. For breakfast and a morning paper, walk over to ChokoLa (36 Khan Market; 91-11-4175-7570), a lovely cafe at the Khan Market with still-lousy service. For one last kebab fix, it’s worth dawdling until Khan Chacha, a stall inside the market, opens its shutters (75 Khan Market, Middle Lane; 91-98106-71103). The specialty is the kathi roll, stuffed with chicken, mutton or paneer and is arguably the tastiest memento of this new old city. </div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3439021925369818701-5242030182526986764?l=guide-delhi.blogspot.com'/></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/rWMA/~4/pcbh-fKvWVw" height="1" width="1"/>Ujjwal Tiwarinoreply@blogger.com0http://guide-delhi.blogspot.com/2008/05/36-hours-in-new-delhi.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439021925369818701.post-70791949985523290042008-05-13T00:42:00.000-07:002009-04-20T11:25:02.152-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCl7Hs1pIwI/AAAAAAAAAGE/_ApFXaKkcAc/s1600-h/DSC01849.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199822617001403138" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SCl7Hs1pIwI/AAAAAAAAAGE/_ApFXaKkcAc/s320/DSC01849.jpg" border="0" /></a> Delhi has a large number of world class restaurants and bars where you can enjoy your time with your favourite liquors, drinks and cocktails of different varieties.

The palika bazaar market hosts around 390 shops offering a varied range of products; though, the market is dominated by clothing and electronic items. Palika Bazaar was established in the late 1970s, however, since the 1980s it has been witnessing a decline in number of customers, in part because of the opening of many new, modern shopping malls all across Delhi.<br /><br />Palika Bazaar is believed to have around 15,000 people within its confines at any given point of time and it also attracts many foreign tourists.

Palika Bazaar does, however, also have a reputation for a wide availability of illegal products such as stolen goods, pornography, fake designer products and pirated movies, software and CDs. At many times police have conducted raids to recover stolen or pirated merchandise, however, this has failed to curb this illegal activity in the market.<br /><div> </div><div><br /><div></div><div><strong>Gates of Palika Bazaar</strong></div><ul><li>Gate no. 1: Main gate.

The city has a maximum width of 48.48 km and maximum length 51.9 km. There are 3 local bodies (statutory towns) in Delhi, viz.<br /><div><div><ul><li>Municipal Corporation of Delhi (area is 1,397.3 km²) </li><li>New Delhi Municipal Committee (42.7 km²) </li><li>Delhi Cantonment Board (43 km²)</li></ul><div></div><div>The Great Gangetic Plains cover most regions of Delhi. The city is located at 28°61′N, 77°23′E, and lies in northern part of India. It has its borders with the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh on East and Haryana on West, North and South. The city lies almost completely in the Gangetic plains. </div><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SB1cPK50qGI/AAAAAAAAADM/Fnp5cMmo8GM/s1600-h/Yamuna.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196410960750094434" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SB1cPK50qGI/AAAAAAAAADM/Fnp5cMmo8GM/s320/Yamuna.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div></div><div>Two major features of the geography of Delhi are the Delhi ridge and the Yamuna flood plain. The low-lying flood plains of the river Yamuna provide fertile alluvial soil, which is ideal for agriculture. These plains, though, are prone to recurrent floods. Reaching up to a height of 318 m (1043 ft), the ridge presents as the most important feature in this region. The ridge originates from the Aravalli range in the south and encircles the west, northeast and northwestern parts of Delhi. The only important river flowing through Delhi - Yamuna is considered as a sacred river among Hindus. Most parts of the city, including New Delhi, lies to the western side of river. East side of the river lies the urban area of Shahdara. Delhi falls under seismic zone-IV, which makes it prone to major earthquakes. </div><br /><div>Delhi has a semi-arid climate with great variation between winter and summer temperatures. Summers are usually long, from month of April to October, with the monsoon season in between. Winter comes in October and peaks in January and is famous for its heavy fog. Extreme temperatures lies in range of −0.6 °C to 47 °C, with annual mean temperature as 25 °C and the monthly mean temperatures ranging from 14 °C to 33 °C. </div><br /><div>The approximate annual rainfall is 714 mm, the most of which is during the monsoon months of July and August. 29 june is considered as the average date of the advent of monsoon winds in Delhi. </div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3439021925369818701-3745158353951000562?l=guide-delhi.blogspot.com'/></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/rWMA/~4/vBU9-ihwcns" height="1" width="1"/>Ujjwal Tiwarinoreply@blogger.com0http://guide-delhi.blogspot.com/2008/05/geography-climate-of-delhi.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439021925369818701.post-55415606266148904632008-05-02T08:37:00.000-07:002009-04-20T11:25:02.152-07:00<strong><span style="font-family:arial;">Pre-20th-Century History </span><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SBs-H650qCI/AAAAAAAAACo/AxUfAiuOq2g/s1600-h/red-fort-delhi4.jpg"><span style="font-family:arial;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195814900893788194" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SBs-H650qCI/AAAAAAAAACo/AxUfAiuOq2g/s200/red-fort-delhi4.jpg" border="0" /></span></a></strong><span style="font-family:arial;"> </span><div><span style="font-family:arial;">According to the mythology of Hindus, Delhi was the site of the fabled city of Indraprastha that featured in the Mahabharata over 3000 years ago.

The Delhi Sultanate lasted from 1206 to 1526, despite its inconsistent rule, which was followed by the mighty Mughals from 1526 to 1857. </span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Most parts of the Old Delhi, including the Jama Masjid and the Red Fort, were built during the rule of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan (1628-58). In 1803, the British occupied Delhi and established a British administration. Delhi was not the capital of India at the time, however it was commercial centre of significant importance and had a population of 150,000 by the start of the 20th century.</span></div><br /><div><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>Modern History</strong> </span><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SBs-IK50qDI/AAAAAAAAACw/ArYWbb8awuk/s1600-h/06900d.jpg"><span style="font-family:arial;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195814905188755506" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BpiRgt8B6O0/SBs-IK50qDI/AAAAAAAAACw/ArYWbb8awuk/s200/06900d.jpg" border="0" /></span></a></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">When the British decided to make Delhi the capital of India in 1911, they constructed New Delhi in a grand imperial style, as if the sun would never set on the British Empire.
