    It is very appreciable effort in putting these information together and presenting top tourist destinations of Delhi. Brief detail of each destination is good and pictures are beautiful. Overall good post to admire. Just searching the net for Red Fort of Delhi and landed here. Just before checked here the information in detail and one can check there too.
