Old Delhi's Monuments

In Old Delhi we visited Jama Masjid and the Red Fort. Two magnificent monuments of Islamic heritage.

Jama Masjid is a one of the world's biggest mosque. Its fine architecture and delicate decorations are delightful.



Climbing the stairs all the way up the eastern tower for the view on Old Delhi is worthwile despite the heat.



Red fort is also a nice calm place (anything is calm after a stroll in Old Delhi) apart from the sellers at the entry.







It is always a pleasure to exchange with the local tourists, who seem to love taking pictures with us.





I caught this man taking a picture of us.... but I was faster!
