    A must visit for children to get educated on the various types of train. There is also a toy train ride.

    Children will enjoy as there is information on every aspect of train operation like signalling etc

    Situated on both sides of Shantipath, just after the Rail Transport Museum, the rose garden spreads out across lawns, with fountains and water channels along the middle. February and early March are a great time to visit the gardens; this is when dozens of varieties of roses are in bloom across the gardens, from some very common pink or white varieties to rarer ones in hues like deep crimson and pale mauve. There are other flowers too, both atop the pergolas as well as in beds, but the roses are the main attraction.

    No entry fee is charged for the Rose Garden.

    The National Police Museum is situated underground, below the National Police Museum. To enter, you need to go in through the main gate of the memorial, and take the downward sloping ramp from just under the disc-shaped structure that stands atop the Hot Springs memorial.

    The ramp, which forms the entrance to the museum, is lined on both sides by a time line of law-keeping in India: how concepts of law and justice developed, and how the role of the police evolved over time. From here, the ramp goes down to the basement level, where various aspects of the Indian police are on display. Among these are uniforms and equipment (including weapons and communications equipment); bands of the police; police contribution in sports, mountaineering, and so on; depictions of police in postage stamps, and so on. Large galleries are devoted to the paramilitary forces, to state police departments, and to policemen and women who have been martyred.

    The best thing about this museum is that it shines the light on police departments and roles that often get overlooked, and which the average citizen usually doesn’t know of: such as peacekeeping, border security, search and rescue and assistance in disasters—all areas where most people think of only the armed forces as playing a role. In that sense, this well-organized, well-maintained museum fulfils an important task.

    Lenin is one among the famous politicials of communist Rusiia. At his time, he was revered for his contributions. But at the present time, his doctrines are outdated, so may be the significance of lenin stautue is also outdated

    Delhi (and other parts of India) commemorates the fallen soldier—of the defence forces—in many places, but the average citizen seems to forget the number of policemen, too, who lay down their lives in the course of duty. India’s policemen have lost their lives battling terrorists, fighting in border areas and alongside defence personnel, helping in peace-keeping and rescues, and many other similar tours of duty.

    The National Police Memorial is a memorial to these policemen, and is laid out in a large, landscaped area in Chanakyapuri. The main area consists of lawns and pathways with walls engraved with the names of some five thousand martyred policemen; near the main gate is a tall grey-stone cenotaph with the symbolic helmet-and-rifle sculpture that memorializes the fallen soldier. Towards the back are other ancillary buildings: a souvenir shop, a small café, and (at one corner) the washrooms: these are rather dusty because few people come here, but not dirty or smelly.

    Underground of the memorial is the National Police Museum (covered in another review). Entry to both the museum and the memorial is free. You have to enter your details in a register at the visitors’ welcome centre just inside the gate, and deposit any bags in the lockers they have there. We visited on a weekend, but this was fairly empty, a pleasant place to visit, and solemn.

    I have been a regular at Kaya Kalp Spa at ITC Maurya when I had stayed there for almost 50 days at a stretch & also intermittently.

    The facilities at the spa are good .The therapists are excellent and very knowledgeable. Balawant helps in the men's locker is very helpful. I have had massage to help me with my recurring back pain and the treatments have been very helpful.

    Recommend it.

    This is very graceful tea lounge with great ambiance, beautifully decorated, very elegant floor, walls, roof and furniture, gives you feeling of royalty.
    I spent about an hour plus here along with my wife for coffee and some light bites. The staff is courteous and polite, service is good, quality of food and beverages was good..
    We also spent some time sitting outside on the deck which was very pleasant with beautiful view overlooking the well maintained lawns and garden bordered by palm trees.
    Would love to come back.

    This tour was beautifully organized from beginning to end. All transfers were smoothly coordinated and all bookings made for us. We were pleased to discover that we would be conducted personally, and were not in a group with others. Our tour guide Kiran Rai was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. We cannot praise enough our driver Suren who drove faultlessly over some quite challenging roads. The hotel accommodations were exceptional.
    One small problem was the Peerless Hotel in Kolkata for our last night. We were assigned to an annex, which was adequate, but we had faulty TV service and poor WiFi. Only one restaurant was open, and it didn't start service until 7:30. After the wonderful service from the Elgin chain we were disappointed that the Peerless could not match this standard.

    Kuldeep is fantastic, and he knows all the best places in town, from delicious dinners to fabulous massage places, all off the beaten track. His driving is great, surprisingly, I felt safe on the roads in Delhi and Agra with him at the wheel. He's also great fun to talk to, I now know lots about Sikhism and the history of Delhi. I highly recommend booking with him.
