Delhi, India: A City of Contrasts and History Amidst the vibrant chaos of India's capital, the shadows of the past loom large. In the 1860s, a group of bankers gathered at the Carriage Way near Kashmir Gate, oblivious to the impending terrorism that would shake the city in 1913. As Asia slips into night, Delhi's rich history unfolds. Once a significant stop on the ancient Silk Road, the city has seen the rise and fall of numerous empires. Baron Alexis' Tombeau dans la plaine de Delhi stands as a testament to the French connection, while the Grande Mosquée de Delhi, also known as the Masjid-i Jahān-Numā, is a stunning architectural marvel. But Delhi's past is not all rosy. The city has also been a hotbed of conflict, with the Carriage Way near Kashmir Gate witnessing numerous battles. In the true color satellite image, the scars of history can still be seen, etched into the urban landscape. Amidst this tapestry of history, Delhi continues to thrive. The city's resilience is evident as it weaves together its diverse cultures and traditions. And as the sun sets, the Turkish Light Infantry marches on, keeping the spirit of Delhi's past alive.
