INDIA - Delhi

Delhi, the capital city of India, strikingly evokes the ancient past while at the same time showcases India's modern future. It's divided into two parts - the crumbling old city of Old Delhi, and the orderly and well planned New Delhi - which exist side by side, but feel like they're worlds apart.

Jama Masjid is the great mosque of Old Delhi and is the largest in India, with a courtyard capable of holding 25,000 devotees. It was begun in 1644 and ended up being the final architectural extravagance of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor who built the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort.

Humayun's Tomb is a magnificent garden tomb is the first substantial example of Mughal architecture in India.

The Red Fort was the residence of the Mughal emperor for nearly 200 years, until 1857.
