2nd Day in Delhi

Our first day was both exciting and tiring so we decided to take it easy on our second day in Delhi. Thus, we decided to start the day out with a trip to the Lotus Temple.

The Lotus Temple is a Baha`i Temple, which means that it is not connected to any religion but instead allows anyone from anyone religion to come and worship here. The Temple is very nice inside and reminded me of a Catholic church. I also looking at the architecture of the building.










Soon after viewing the Lotus Temple we decided to go out and eat lunch. This time we decided to head out to Dilli Haat which sells handmade goods from around India.


Dilli Haat is a great place to escape the craziness of New Delhi and enjoy looking at crafts and enjoying the great food.


After looking around the market we decided to eat at a local stall.








At the stall we ate Momos which reminded me of Japanese Gyoza or Chinese dumplings but deep fried instead of being steamed or fried. We also had Nan and local Indian noodles.























After spending a couple of hours at Dilli Haat, we decided to head back to our hotel and call it an early night because we would have to wake up at 4 the next morning and catch a train to Rishikesh.
