Description

Delhi was made and razed several times. It was plundered by Timur Lang, Nadir Shah and Ahmedshah Abdali. But it resurrected itself each time, and with redoubled vigour. Then came the Sultans, followed by the Mughals who gave it stunning mosques, awe-inspiring monuments and gardens.

The British arrived soon after and Delhi remained their capital for thirty-six years, until India became independent. Dilli O Dilli takes you on a walk through the many Delhis of the past to the Delhi that we know today.
