India | The Lodhi, New Delhi: The only rebranded Aman hotel.
| The Lodhi, New Delhi: The only rebranded Aman hotel.
After a four-year contract, the former Aman New Delhi was rebranded as The Lodhi in 2013 (now under LHW) and is managed by the hotel owner. As the only rebranded Aman hotel in the world, the Aman design is still a highlight of the hotel, even though it is no longer a luxury hotel.
Although it is a city hotel, it has a holiday atmosphere, surrounded by seven acres of gardens and golf courses. The hotel building is like a wall, like an Indian palace fortress, locking in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Of course, the hotel is only a few kilometers away from many city attractions and bustling streets.
The hotel rooms range from deluxe rooms with private terraces to two-bedroom suites, with city and golf course views. The biggest highlight is the mini swimming pool in the room, where you can enjoy leisure time without leaving the house.

Lutyens Delhi
Delhi is India’s capital, and the favorite city of many Indian travelers. A lot of it has to do with the city’s wealth of historical riches.
At least seven major empires have made their capital in this strategic spot on north India’s Yamuna River. Each has left behind monuments, tombs, forts and, in the case of the British, an entire planned city: Lutyens Delhi. There are three UNESCO World Heritage Sites here – Qutab Minar, Humayun’s Tomb and Red Fort – and Delhi recently applied for the prestigious tag of a World Heritage City.
As in all of India’s metropolitan areas, the traditional and modern co-exist in a state of dynamic harmony here, and you can easily find traditional culture. This is especially true when you visit the historical monuments, during festivals, at special occasions like weddings, and in particularly colorful neighborhoods (such as Old Delhi).
Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, famous as the builder of the Taj Mahal, moved his capital from Agra to Delhi in the mid-17th century. He built the Red Fort as his power base directly opposite the Chandni Chowk (a.k.a. Moonlight Square). Whatever poetic intention he had for Chandni Chowk has been obfuscated by the masses of people, tangled webs of electrical wires and a profusion of shops, as well as every conceivable vehicle known to man.

Discovering Delhi: A Culinary Adventure 🍛
Delhi, the vibrant capital of India, offers a gastronomic experience as diverse and colorful as its history. Venturing into the heart of the city, I explored the bustling streets of Chandni Chowk, where the air is perfumed with a mix of spices and the sounds of sizzling woks fill the atmosphere. The standout of my culinary journey was undoubtedly the local street food.
The golgappas, served at a small, unassuming stall near the Red Fort, were simply delightful. These crisp, hollow dough balls, filled with tangy tamarind water and chickpeas, burst with flavor in every bite. Moving on, the kebabs at Karim's, tender and richly marinated, offered a taste of Mughlai cuisine that dates back centuries.
For dessert, the jalebis from a tiny shop in Old Delhi were a revelation. These bright orange coils, deep-fried and soaked in sugar syrup, were the perfect end to my food tour, offering a sweet contrast to the spicy dishes that preceded them.
Delhi's food scene is a testament to its melting pot of cultures, with each bite providing insight into the city's complex history and vibrant present. From street vendors to upscale eateries, the city serves up flavors that cater to every palate, ensuring that every visitor leaves with a satisfied belly and a longing to return.

Lothian Cemetery लोथियन कब्रिस्तान
#2024wish
Lothian Cemetery, also known as Lothian Road Cemetery, is a historic cemetery located in Old Delhi, India. It is one of the oldest and largest Christian cemeteries in Delhi, dating back to the colonial era.
The cemetery was established during the British rule in India and served as a burial ground for British residents, soldiers, and officials, as well as other Christian settlers in Delhi. Many graves in Lothian Cemetery date back to the 19th and early 20th centuries.
The cemetery is named after the Lothian Regiment, which was stationed in Delhi during the colonial period. It is now maintained by the Delhi government's Archaeological Department and stands as a testimony to the city's multicultural and colonial history.
Lothian Cemetery is not only a burial ground but also a significant historical site, offering insights into Delhi's colonial past and serving as a reminder of the diverse communities that once lived and worked in the city.

Partition Museum & Dara Shukoh Library
#2024wish
The Partition Museum is a significant cultural institution located in Delhi, India. It commemorates the tumultuous period of the Partition of India in 1947, which resulted in the division of British India into the independent nations of India and Pakistan. The museum aims to preserve the memories, stories, and experiences of those affected by the Partition, including refugees, survivors, and their descendants.
The Partition Museum showcases a wide range of artifacts, personal belongings, oral histories, photographs, and documents related to the Partition, offering visitors insights into the human cost and the impact of this historic event on millions of lives.
The Dara Shukoh Library Cultural Hub, on the other hand, is an initiative in Delhi, India, named after Dara Shukoh, the eldest son of Emperor Shah Jahan. The cultural hub seeks to promote intellectual discourse, cultural exchange, and creative expression by hosting various events, lectures, exhibitions, and performances related to literature, arts, history, and philosophy.
While both the Partition Museum and the Dara Shukoh Library Cultural Hub are separate entities, they share a common goal of fostering understanding, dialogue, and reconciliation among diverse communities and promoting a deeper appreciation of India's rich cultural heritage and history.
