The engine hums as the cityscape of New Delhi slides away and the landscape opens into lanes of mustard fields and ochre forts—this is the Golden Triangle, a compact sweep of Mughal tombs, Rajput palaces and living bazaars. On morning one a guided walk around Qutb Minar and India Gate introduces the theatre of India’s capital: sandstone pillars, sweeping plazas, bureaucracy framed in colonial facades.
