Delhi
I asked my soul, what is Delhi? She replied: The world is the body and Delhi, its soul.

· Lal Quila, Chandni Chowk Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib and Jama Masjid
· Humayun’s Tomb, Nizamuddin Dargah and Lodhi Garden
· Gurdwara Bangla Sahib and Sacred House Cathedral Church
· ISKCON Temple and Lotus Temple
· Hauz Khas Village, Hauz Khas Fort and Deer Park

Mumbai
The thing about Mumbai is you go five yards and all of human existence is revealed. It's an incredible cavalcade of life, and I love that

Coming to the financial capital of the country, Mumbai offers a lot to see in a short period of time. The top few of them are:
· Marine Drive and Gateway of India
· Juhu Beach and Radha Ras Bihari Temple
· The Flora Fountain and Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus
· Film City
· Haji Ali, Mahalaxmi Temple and Siddhi Vinayak Temple
And needless to say, a trip to Mumbai would be incomplete without a trip in the Mumbai local, the lifeline of the city.

It was in Calcutta that I learnt about true warmth; about simple human decency; about love and friendship; about emotions and caring; about truth and honesty.
