Highlights
Skip the usual traps in Old Delhi and explore its deepest historical points with us, "Kashmiri Gate" is one of them. Kashmere gate was original gates of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan’s mid-17th century imperial capital Shahjahanabad (presently OLD Delhi). The gate was located close to river Yamuna and the region around it became a site of recreational gardens and country houses built by the members of the royal family and courtiers. This area is full of Heritage buildings, British era Churches, cemeteries & Mughal Era Mosques. At the end we will also be taking you the usual old Delhi for a photo stop.
