Meeting with you at Delhi airport - traditional welcome with flower garlands
The metropolis of twenty million is divided into a new and an old city.
The most important administrative buildings are concentrated in new Delhi. Most of the local nobility live here.
And in Old Delhi, life is in full swing according to the laws of the multimillion-dollar jungle and medieval exoticism. Narrow streets, low houses, and very close to modern high-rise buildings and wide avenues. Truly Delhi is a city of contrasts, and we will see this.
