There is so much to do in Delhi that will delight everyone. From shopping at the trendiest boutiques, to finding bargains in Sarojini Nagar, and getting lost in the world of knick-knacks, jewellery, fabrics, sarees, furnishings, and books in Old Delhi. Wander the alleys of Chandni Chowk. Gaze spellbound at the Qutab Minar. Roam the cavernous interiors of the Red Fort (Lal Quilla). Take the spanking new Delhi Metro across town. Explore the circles of Connaught Place, or run circles in Nehru Park. Meditate at Lodhi Gardens. Or, gawk at the Parliament building and India Gate. In other words, do the things that each new person suggests you should do in the capital of the nation, and you will never have a dull moment.

Your trip to Amritsar is not complete if you have not sampled the delicious 'langar' or 'kada prasad' given in the Golden Temple. 'Lassi' and 'geela kulcha' are two things outside the temple that you must eat! Your trip to Amritsar is futile if you have not shopped here. Amritsari 'jootis', 'Phulkari dupattas' and hosiery goods are a must-buy!
