The cities
Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata
Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata are where most journeys land and leave from, and each is worth a night or two more than most people give it.

Old Delhi
The Jama Masjid and the Red Fort, and the lanes between them.

Often the end of a journey east, and a different country again.
