On 15th August, we Indians celebrated Independence Day …. Here is my collection of the pictures from India gate with the tricolor, the President’s House and the parliament house. In the evening India gate has a special vibrancy with a lot of ice cream vendors, hawkers selling candy floss, papad sprinkled with black pepper, chana murmura and bhel puri (roasted chick pea with puffed rice made with onions, green chillies, tomatoes and mint chutney decorated with coriander leaves) which is my personal favorite too. Its the perfect place in Delhi for a night ride on a motor bike or in a convertible if you have one. And on our republic day which is the 26th January it is lit up like in these pictures. Since the pictures were taken in January most people are wearing woolens. The winters from November to March is actually a great time to visit Delhi…Enjoy the pictures.
