Mind the Gap Engelska 2012

Delhi, like India, is full of contradictions and history. Here empires were built, buried and rebuilt, as many as fourteen times. The present is crowded, modern, ambitious - a potpourri of cultures and conflicts, where swanky cars dodge carefree bovines on roads lit with neon signs. The Metro has brought a ray of hope for those who want to see Delhi up-and-close on foot. Mind the gap: Walking Delhi with the Metro is the first and only, guide to Delhi's lanes and monuments, people and places, poets and djinns and the Delhi Metro, that traverses like a silver worm of time across myths and folklores and empire-making that made the city a tempting and tempestuous beacon of riches and glory for millennia.
