I’ll keep this short because I need to pack and get some sleep. Our alarms are set for 4.30am and we fly out just before 9am. If there is time in Singapore, I will expand on this page.
Our final day in Delhi included:
- Qutb Minar – one of the oldest and finest structures still standing in India, dating back to the rule of the Delhi Sultans. The iron pillar here is 1600 years old and has never rusted
- India Gate – a memorial to all members of India’s armed forces who have lost their lives in the service of their country
- Raj Ghat – the resting place of Mahatma Ghandi’s ashes. A very beautiful, peaceful park featuring flora from every part of the world
- Lotus Temple – a very recent construction, a little reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House ‘sails’ in its design. A place of worship for the Bahai Faith
