Up Sorties montagne à ski, à pied ou à vélo --- essentiellement » Delhi again after many years (October 12-19, 2014) Slideshow

ESWEEK is in Delhi this year. In fact, not really Delhi, but a 40km outside, in a somewhat artificial place. A splendid resort, and a street with well-kept 2-storage houses, each one with a beautiful car in front, but just a few meters away, the same little houses but in pretty bad shape, already getting swallowed by nature.
Visiting Delhi from there means 20km by taxi to the metro station, and then 40 min by metro right to Connaught Place.
To visit Agra, there is now a new, modern motorway, on which there was only little traffic – including of course also bicycles and tractors, just the cows are not allowed. The weather in Agra was not so nice this time (some photos with blue sky from a previous visit can be found starting from HERE ).
