The Different Looks Of Delhi

I have been writing in my blog about how Delhi wears a different look in every season. My posts are not so much about facts and figures, but more about the look and feel of the city in a particular month. I have spent long years in Delhi and these posts may be of interest to you if you are planning a visit to the Indian capital any time in the future. I have written from July to December in these posts. You will find more as I update my blog in the coming months. Take your pick from what has been posted so far:

Wonderful blog Lata. Thanks for posting. The 1st blog reminds me of how hard air travel into Delhi can be during Dec. as many flights have to be diverted due to the fog.

And keep posting pics!! It is nice when ones work is recognized. Sometime people post a question or a concern and get some good feedback but then you never hear from them again. Sigh. Cheers, Larry
