History of Delhi:

Delhi, the capital of India, has a rich history dating back to the times of the Mahabharata. It has been ruled by several powerful emperors, including the Mughals who succeeded the Khiljis and Tughlaqs. The city witnessed political upheaval for over five centuries, starting with the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate in 1206 by Muhammad of Ghori. The Mughal Empire was founded by Babur after the battle of Panipat in 1526, and Delhi became their permanent seat when Shah Jahan built the walls of Old Delhi in 1638. After India's independence in 1947, New Delhi became the official capital. Book Delhi tour packages and get to know the historical significance of this vibrant city in a broader way.
