Delhi has seen its share of rulers from Hindu kings to Muslims Sultans, and in 1911 the capital was shifted from Calcutta to Delhi under British rule, After Independence in 1947, New Delhi was officially declared the Capital city of India, and has continued to grow and flourish with modern grandeur and cutting-edge design. A multicultural city, it claims to participate in and celebrate all major festivals, whether Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Sikh or Christian. + Architectural Delights: Old Dehli, (Shahjahanabad) in the north has buzzing streets, exotic markets (including Chandni Chowk, Khari Baoli and Chawri Bazaar) and magnificent architectural sites to explore, including the Mughal Red Fort and Jama Masjid mosque, which are both built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan who also built the Taj Mahal in Agra.
