Delhi Pictures 2009 & 2010
I like the city of Delhi – many don’t. I should really say I like Paharganj, the area of New Delhi where we usually stay. It’s a 5 minute walk from the Metro, so quite handy to get around. This is our hotel ‘before – last fall’ & after – in January. All the wires were being put under the street before the 2010 Commonwealth Games, hosted by India in about 8 months. It’s a huge task. The front steps of our hotel, & other buildings were encroaching on city land, so they had to be pushed in.
That’s the back of me in the Old Delhi market, not far from Paharganj. That area is really very old, a fascinating throwback, & mostly Muslims live & work there. The second pic, also Old Delhi, shows the fog in January. I’m sure the polution plays a part in it, but mainly it’s because of the cold air coming down from the Himalayas in the north (this is the fog that prevented us from flying in, then out of Delhi in the days before our departure for Canada – See ‘Re-entry: Reverse Culture Shock – Jan. 22nd)
