What to see in Delhi UBC 6

                                                           

Yesterday I wrote about the  traffic problems of the city.  Traffic problem cannot be avoided because of the increasing population of the city. It is but natural that being the capital city, people from all parts of the country come to seek employment  to Delhi.

    Whatever may be the traffic situation, Delhi is a very beautiful city. Delhi is a mixture of old and new.  There are monuments, which were built even before the Mughal period. It has a hoard of multi storey buildings, fly overs and broad roads, due to which the city can be compared to any other grand city of the world. It is the amalgamation of new and old. Given below are some of the spots which are famous and worth seeing.
