President House Delhi - Must Visit
President House is a must place to visit if you are sightseeing around Delhi as this is a structure of elegance as well as political importance. President House , otherwise known as Rashtrapati Bhawan, was built under British Rule or the Raj as it was then named. It was built to house the Viceroy of India and His Entourage so the Ruling Elite could Run India in Style. Now it is a place where locals and Tourists alike can revel in its splendor rather than it just being a symbol of colonial rule. It was originally designed by the Architect Lutyens and boasts over 340 well furnished and thought out rooms. It also has a beautiful courtyard which makes it similar to Mughal Architecture in other parts of India too. Durbar Hall is the main great room for all official and important functions of State so to this day the Building is being used to for Governance and is a must see.

Parliament House(Sansad Bhawan)
Parliament HouseVisiting Sansad Bhavan or Parliament House is a must on your Delhi Trip as this is one of the most famous of the more recent Buildings housed in Delhi. It was originally named The Circular House because of its shape and was designed by Herbert Baker. It officially opened in 1927 and has been in use ever since. Pillars that stand erect like sentinels make this building unique with a new age edge to it and it is quite hidden away on Parliament Street, unlike other important buildings that stand in Delhi today. Once you come near to Sansad Bhavan you will taste its grandeur that came into being during the reforms period of 1919/1927. There are many sights and sounds of Delhi that are unforgettable to the Onlooker and these three places of interest should also captivate The Traveler's interest.
