2.Jantar Mantar
An Observatory:The Jantar Mantar was built in 1710
by Raja Jai Singh II of Jaipur (1699-1743) in Delhi. This is an
observatory
consisting
of
mason-built
astronomical
instruments to chart the course of the heavens. Jai Singh,
who was a very scholarly king with a very keen interest in
astronomy and astrology, had other observatories built too
in Ujjain, Jaipur, Mathura (which no longer survives) and
Varanasi. The first among these was this one in Delhi. The
yantras (instruments, which has been distorted to Jantar) are
built of brick rubble and plastered with lime. The yantras
have evocative names like, samrat yantra, jai prakash, ram
yantra and niyati chakra; each of which are used to for
various astronomical calculations.
3.India Gate
All India War Memorial :India Gate is constructed as a
memorial and was built in the memory of 90,00 soldiers who
laid down their lives during world war 1. Located at Rajpath,
India Gate is 42 m high and is popular relaxation area during
the summer evenings. India Gate also act as popular picnic
spot during winter. Also known as the All India War Memorial,
India Gate was designed and constructed by Lutyens. He was
the who is considered the chief proclaimer in designing the
New Delhi plans.
The Architectural Marvel :A tour of Lutyens Delhi just has to
kick off with the stately India Gate at the east end of the
broad Janpath (earlier Kingsway) that leads to the
Rashtrapati Bhawan. Another additional 13,516 names
engraved on the arch and foundations form a separate
memorial to the British and Indian soldiers killed on the
North-West Frontier in the Afghan War of 1919. The
foundation stone was laid by HRH the Duke of Co naught in
1921 and the monument was dedicated to the nation 10
years later by the then Viceroy, Lord Irwin. Another
memorial, Amar Jawan Jyoti was added much later after India
had said good bye to its imperial rulers. It is in the form of a
flame that burns day and night under the arch to remind the
nation of soldiers who perished in the Indo-Pakistan War of
December 1971.The entire arch stands on a low base of red
Bharatpur stone and rises in stages to a huge cornice,
beneath which are inscribed Imperial suns. Above on both
sides is inscribed INDIA, flanked by MCM and to the right,

The Breathtaking View of India Gate :Nowadays, if you drive down the
smooth wide expanse of Rajpath on a midsummer night, you
might be excused for assuming that a huge glittering
carnival is in progress at India Gate. The entire boulevard up
to the monument is lined with cars, scooter, motorcycles and
what-have-you. In fact all of Delhi seems to have converged
to the emerald lawns of India Gate. The air is thick with
chatter, laughter and the cries of assorted vendors peddling
their wares. You can snack on anything from fruit chaat (fruit
salad with hot, spicy dressing), through bhelpuri (a snack of
puffed rice, spices and hot, sweet and sour chutney), chana
jor garam (spicy chickpeas), dal ka pakodas (fried lentil-flour
dumplings), potato chips to ice cream, candy floss and
aerated drinks.
A Perfect Place For A Halt :Most
of
the
revelers
come
equipped with balls, Frisbees or just a pack of playing cards.
But India Gate has lots to offer in the name of entertainment.
You can watch monkeys perform, enjoy a camel ride, blow
soap bubbles all over the lawns, play with balloons and even
get your insides turned inside out on a ferries wheel. But if
you ask us, the best thing to do is to loll on the cool lawns,
lick a bar of ice candy and watch the floodlit arch and the
fountains nearby that seem magically lit up with colored
lights.

5. Rashtrapati Bhawan
Rashtrapati Bhawan (Viceroy
Monument of British Empire :-
Palace)-Best
Known
The
Viceroy
Palace
remains
Lutyens most significant achievement. It is befittingly the
crowning glory of the British Empire and architecture in
India. Today, it is perhaps Indias best known monument
after the Taj Mahal and the Qutub Minar. Bigger than the
Palace of Versailles, it cost a whopping 12,53,000 and now
houses the President of India. It is unquestionably a
masterpiece of symmetry, discipline, silhouette, colour and
harmony. of course, it has come in for much criticism too but
that has mostly been limited to the imperial intent behind it
rather than its architecture.
Picturesque Location :Better
known
now
as
the
Rashtrapati Bhawan, the sprawling palace straddles the
crown of Raisina Hill and is the focal point of New Delhi. The
majestic Rajpath (earlier Kings Way) leads up to the palace
on Raisina Hill and here comes into view the one fatal flaw in
design. Lutyens and Baker had a major showdown about the
height of the slope approaching the palace which was at that
time caricatured as the War of the Gradient. Lutyens
wanted the palace to come into view as one climbed Raisina
Hill. Unfortunately, Baker miscalculated. The palace
disappears from sight till only the copper dome is visible.
Furious with Baker, Lutyens said he had met his Bakerloo.
The palace is flanked by the two Secretariats and the three
together, open into a huge square called the Viceroys Court
where the Jaipur Column stands tall. The Viceroys Court,
which frames the main entrance to the house, has lateral
entrances on the axis of the Jaipur Column. Here the levels
