Metro Rail (India)

Metro Rail is one of the biggest revolution in Delhi and NCRs. Previously we used to commute by buses or autos from one place to other but now we can easily commute with the help of metro rail. Now metro rail has spreaded all over Delhi and NCR too. Now we dont have to think twice before going to Gurgaon or Noida or any other NCR from any part of Delhi. The only negative of delhi metro is crowd. Its safe for women, girls, old aged people, kids etc to travel in metro rail. You can reach your destination in no time. The metro rail is so well connected that it you can travel from any part of delhi to anywhere in delhi or ncr and vice versa. Now there are separate compartments for females so that they can travel safely. The underground metro stations are quite beautiful. Once you get down to any of the underground stations you will feel that you are in abroad. Now because of the heavy crowd the metro rail department has introduced many trains so that they can reduce the crowd in one metro. They have increased the frequency of metro trains and I guess they have also added two more boggies in the trains so that more people can get into it in one go, passengers dont have to wait long to catch another train. In busiest stations like Kashmere Gate, Rajiv Chowk(Connaught Place), Central Secretariat etc., the frequency between 2 trains have been reduced to 2 minutes so that the passengers dont create chaos at the station.

Dubai Mall

Dubai Mall is located just next to the tallest building in the world which is Burj Khalifa. Dubai Mall is one of the biggest mall in Asia. It is as big as a football ground and it has got around 10 or more than 10 floors. There is a prayer room inside the mall where the muslims can offer prayers. It has got the biggest aquarium in the world where you can find many fishes. It has also got the Guiness Book Of World Records award for the biggest artificial aquarium in the world. It is about 10 minutes walking from Burj Khalifa which makes it more happening. You can find all the renowned brands over there or you can say if you have got good money to spend then it is the best place for you. You can find many unheard famous brands over there which makes it an aristocrat place to freak out. If you are going there by Metro Rail then you have to get down at Dubai Mall metro station and you can board bus to that place or you can walk from there itself. It is about 20-25 minutes from the metro station. You can find all the luxurious cars parked at the parking area. You can find good costly restaurants inside the Dubai mall. As I didnt have that much money so I couldnt get the chance of buying or having anything from there. Its located at the heart of Dubai. I recommend all the visitors to visit Dubai mall at least once during their visit to Dubai.

Connaught Place

If you are a shopping freak then Connaught Place is the right place for you. Its the biggest aristocrat shopping area in Delhi. You can find many reputed brands over there. It is surrounded by other shopping areas like Janpath, Palika Bazar, Bhagirath Palace. You can find many foreigners hanging over there. If I am not wrong I guess it was built during the Britishers time. You can also spend your time in Central Park which is inside Connaught Place. If you are looking for cheap stuffs then you can pay a visit to Palika Bazar or Janpath etc but you have to bargain a lot with the shopkeepers. If you are looking for branded stuffs then Connaught Place is the right place for you. There are 4 movie halls in Connaught Place where you can watch movies and countless restaurants where you can enjoy your meal. For me its the best shopping area in whole Delhi. Its a must see place for all the people who are visiting Delhi. At night when the street lights are on then it looks more beautiful. Even the metro train stop is also there which makes it connected with other parts of delhi and easily commutable for the people. It is also called as the "Heart of the City". It was built in the Britisher's style.

Samosa (Indian snack)

Samosa is a very popular snack in India. You can find different kinds of samosas in India. When you go to West Bengal then you find small samosas which are called as Singhara and they are small in size as compared to samosa. It is very tasty and many foreigners who visit India never forget to taste samosa and once they taste it they get addicted to it. I remembered that Sunita Williams took samosa in the space shuttle along with her as food. She being an american took samosas with her in her way to space. Samosa is made up of potatoes, cashew nuts, peas, spices etc. The shopkeepers provide you different kinds of sauces along with it. There are some good restaurants from where you can get good qualities of samosas which are Haldirams, Bikanerwala, Aggarwal Sweets, Annapurna Sweets etc. Its not that spicy in taste so it wont trouble your stomach. Mostly Indians eat it as snacks. They love to eat samosas with chutneys (sauce which the shopkeepers provide you with samosas).

Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal was built by Shah Jahan (mughal emperor) for his ill wife Mumtaz in 17th century. Taj Mahal is located in Agra which is in India. It is made up marbles. Mumtaz was buried inside Taj Mahal. It has been included in the list of modern 7 wonders of the world. People from various countries specially come down to India to see Taj Mahal. It looks quite beautiful at night specially when the moonlight falls on it. Agra is in Uttar Pradesh which is a state of India so if anybody wants to go there then you have to catch a train from Delhi or you can also go by tourist buses or by hiring cars. In summer it gets quite hot so I would recommend you guys to visit Taj Mahal in winters. You can also hire travel guides from there who can tell you each and everything about Taj Mahal. Travel guides for different languages are also available there. If someone is visiting India then they should pay a definite visit to Taj Mahal.

Shawarma - Lebanese Dish

Shawarma is a famous lebanese dish. During my visit to Dubai I had lots and lots of Shawarma. It costs around 5-6 dirhams over there. I liked it a lot. Its is made up of Kubooz and mutton. They cut mutton into small pieces and put it inside the kubooz along with mayonnaise, cabbage, onions. There are two types of shwarma available in Dubai one is spicy shwarma and the other one is non spicy one. I liked non spicy one more. You can easily get shwarma on dubai streets. Its a damn yummy dish which will make your mouth watering. I used to have it as snacks or dinner because the shopkeeper starts this preparation from evening only. You cant get shawarma in morning or afternoon. They mix the mutton pieces with mayonnaise, cabbage, onions etc and wrap it up in Kubooz and then serve it to the customers. Like the way in India we have Aloo Tikki, chaat, bhalle papri, cutlets, pao bhaji etc as snaks similarly over there its considered as snack. I will recommend all the Dubai visitors to go for Shawarma at least once during their visit. 

Kubooz

Kubooz is a kind of bread which we find in Middle East countries. Like the way we have Chappati or Roti in India similarly they have Kubooz over there. It resembles with Roomali Roti. I have eaten lots of Kubooz in Dubai. At first I thought that I wouldnt get any chappati sort of thing in Dubai but later on I found that with this bread. I liked it. Its like normal Indian bread so we can eat Kubooz with any curries like the way we eat rotis over here. Shawarma is very popular dish in Dubai. Its basically a lebanese dish. Chicken or mutton which are used in the preparation of Shawarma are tightly kept in kubooz and mind it they are quite tasty. I must recommend everyone to have kubooz with curries once they visit Dubai and I bet they will like it.
