My First visit to India New Dehli, India

I made two trips to New Dehli from Kazakhstan (2014-2015)

On November 29, 2014, my two Kazakh colleagues and I flew to New Dehli, India, from Almaty, Kazakhstan. Air Astana had about 3 flights a week to New Dehli from Almaty. We visited the India Gate and then went to the market.

Our driver drove us to Agra in the morning to see the Taj Mahal.

2015 New Dehli Trip

In March 2015, I flew back to New Dehli. I wanted to bring some spices from New Dehli back to Vietnam for my former friend's restaurant, Baba's Kitchen. I was visited the Jama Masjid considered one of the largest Mughal mosques in India.

This was a holy site. The imam let me go inside, but I could not take any pictures. I had to pay for this shot as well.

Later the driver took me to this part of New Dehli near the Jama Masjid. My Indian colleague told his cousin that I needed to see the other part of India.

Ibis Hotel in New Dehli, India.
I returned to my hotel. During my two stays in New Dehli, I booked a room at the Ibis Hotel. I was always surprised at the security in this area of New Dehli.

Of course I had to take a picture of an elephant at the New Dehli International Airport.

So much yet to see!

I only visited a small part of India. There is so much more to see.
