Itinerary

Birla Mandir Temple (Lakshmi Narayan)

You will be picked up from your hotel in the morning for a tour of some of the religious sites of Delhi. The tour will commence with a visit to the Lakshmi Narayan temple, also known as Birla Mandir. It is the first in a series of temples built in India by the industrialist and philanthropist Birla family. The red and gold colored temple has several gardens and fountains and is crowded with devotees during the festivals of Janmashtami and Diwali.

Gurudwara Bangla Sahib

Next, visit the majestic Gurdwara Bangla Sahib situated in the heart of New Delhi. It was originally a bungalow that belonged to Maharaja Jai Singh of Jaipur. It was converted into a gurdwara in honor of Guru Harkrishan, the eighth Guru of the Sikhs, who used the bungalow during his stay in Delhi. During that time there was a smallpox and cholera epidemic in the city and Guru Harkrishan tended to the sick from the precincts of this house. Later he himself succumbed to the disease. The Gurdwara has a holy pool, which is revered by Sikhs for having medicinal properties. The Gurdwara is made of white marble and has a gold plated dome which is visible from a distance.

Jama Masjid

Next travel back in time as you drive to Old Delhi to visit Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Built by the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan, it was completed at a princely sum of one million rupees in 1656. It is made of red sandstone and has 3 gates and 4 towers.
