See the India Gate at the eastern end of the Rajpath. It might not be Arches of Triomphe that you are looking for in India, but I guess it is a must-see if you are in the vicinity. also, it is quite near the national museum... Leave a Comment

The India Gate-a 42 metre high war memorial dedicated to those soldiers who lost their lives in World War I.The 'Amar Jawan Jyoti'(which means 'The Flame of the Immortal Soldier')was added in 1971,after the India-Pakistan war.

Flanked by ornamental ponds and lawns, Rajpath is host to the Republic Day Parade. The two secretariat buildings and Rashtrapati Bhawan on the Raisina hills are located on the two sides of this immensely broad road. Previously the Boat Club, besides the Rajpath, was host to many demonstrations and Rallies. India Gate is towards the eastern end of Rajpath .
India Gate is a 42m high stone arch of triumph. It bears the name of the 85,000 Indian Army Soldiers who died in the campaigns of WW1, the North-West Frontiers operations and the 1919 Afghan Fiasco. Below the arch is the memorial to the unknown soldier. India Gate is surrounded by green grass lawns and trees. Leave a Comment

Vijay Chwok is a beautiful area,very green with wide avenues,home of many embassy's and govermant buildings.
Take a tour around this part of the city heavily influenced by the British,which could be easily mistaken for anywhere in Europe or North America.
Worth seeing are The Parliament House,Rashtrapati Bhavan (Presidents House) and without doubt the India Gate with its wide road views and the the George V canopy specially built for his coronation as Emperor. Leave a Comment
