A visit to Delhi| Travel Blog by Harshika, 9, Kolkata
Holidays are round the corner! Where are you off to? 9 year old Harshika from Kolkata recounts her memorable trip to Delhi. Have you been there?
A visit to Delhi
I went to Delhi, the capital of India with my parents. We reached the airport on time because of the rush due to summer vacation. While my mother was getting her security check done, my father and I went to the bookstore nearby. I purchased a travel book about Delhi tourism. We boarded our flight and reached Delhi safely. I learnt from the book that Delhi has a cosmopolitan crowd.
We took a cab to Le Meridien. The hotel had lavish décor. Delhi has a rich cultural heritage, fascinating monument
The day we visited Red Fort, Lotus Temple, India Gate and many more places. I was thrilled and overjoyed to see the Lotus Temple. I was amazed to see the shape and lighting at the temple. I could not imagine a temple in the shape of a lotus. Its shape was unique in itself.
During the trip, I made new friends and exchanged our numbers. While we were waiting for the Uber ride to come near Chandni Chowk, which is Old Delhi, a man riding a bike snatched my father’s mobile. Since the market was crowded people somehow caught hold of him. We all got a bit scared because of the incident.
A nearby food stall seller took us to his shop nearby. He offered us famous food i.e Chole Bhatore. It was very delicious. People over there are very friendly, kind and helpful.
The pictures we took will preserve the memories of our Delhi visit. It was a lovely experience.
