QUTUB MINAR - INDIA

A Tourist in Delhi 📷

My (mostly) unedited attempts at capturing the Qutub Minar from my trip to the city earlier this year.

Delhi is a peculiar place. It is everything, all at once. I’ve never seen a city with a character as varied as this one. Chaos and calm, DLF buildings and old world charm.

I love how almost no one who lives in Delhi is actually from Delhi but somehow anyone can call it their own. Is anyone visiting Delhi ever really a tourist? I felt like I’ve already lived several lives here. I probably know more about Delhi than the place I actually live in.

Looking at this post here you might assume I loved Delhi. No, I actually hated it. But that’s the thing about it. You can love it, you can hate it, but you can never ever forget it. I love it in a twisted way. Like, I hate it but I’m obsessed. I do not know how to put it into words, I am not a poet.

जीने के लिए सोचा ही नहीं, दर्द संभालने होंगे

Jeene ke liye socha hi nhi, dard sambhalne honge

मुस्कुराएएं तो, मुस्कुराने के कर्ज़ उतारने होंगे

Muskuraye toh, muskurane ke karz utarne honge

Blog 1- This is Delhi, The chaotic wonderland (Part 1)

Shambhavi Somvanshi

Delhi, also known as the city of Indra, is located in India. It is the capital of the country and the heart and soul of Indian civilization.

I was 7 when I visited the capital city for the first time. I had been living in Gurgaon, which is around 35 Km from Delhi, but had never been there until a school project came my way. The topic of the project was, " Write about your latest travel experience and paste pictures of the same."

So here was the perfect opportunity for me!

Got all dolled up, I was wearing a colorful jumpsuit with open hair  and pink barbie sunglasses. My mother was wearing a green chikankari kurta with a pair of jeans.

We reached the MG Road metro station.

The station was gigantic, with passengers moving all over the place in order to board their respective trains.

The gray colored trains were gorgeous from inside. With separate sections for males and females, they had huge windows and displays. There were also announcements being made in soothing male and female voices about the upcoming stations.

We boarded the one that would take us to Qutub Minar. It took us 19 minutes in crossing 8 stations and reaching our final destination, Qutub Minar.The world's tallest brick minaret , what a beauty it was!

The 238 Ft. monument, made of sandstone and marble, was such a endearing site for the sore eyes.

The tourist guide told us that the Qutub Minar  was built by Qutub-ud-Din Aibak in 1193. It is also known as victory tower because it was made in order to celebrate the Muslim dominance in Hindu ruler's defeat. 

I was completely in awe of it. I spent my time capturing the monument and adoring its beauty. That sequence was amazing even to me as a youngster. I observed my surroundings. There were ice cream, popcorn , small games, binoculars , balloons being sold at the periphery of the entrance gate. There were kids who were wanting to play the games and the famous cola flavored ice cream and their parents, who were  giving them the money for the same. There were thousands of people around me,knocking into me, but I didn't care because I couldn't hear any of the commotion around me. I was utterly mesmerised by Qutub Minar; that is its allure and its enchantment. We stayed there for around 45 minutes. The monument was also surrounded by a beautiful garden and several other historical monuments. We sat in the garden where me and mom sat together and talked about the monument, my friends and my school. It was now time to move to our next destination. Wondering what our next destination was? I would be sharing about it in my next blog. Please stay tuned!
