I saw Gandhi's Delhi home, a Gandhi museum, and where Gandhi was cremated. I saw the largest mosque in India, a lot of tombs, and a new temple that looks like the Sydney opera house, the tallest single tower in the world, capital buildings, and monuments like India Gate.
The Taj Mahal is a tomb (the biggest and best in India) to give you an idea of what an Indian tomb looks like. There were some really nice things and great architecture, but after five hours aof looking at tombs, mosques, and temples, it gets a little boring.
On Sunday I went to a fantastic market called Delhi Haat. They had fabulous scarves and bedding made of silk, cashmere, wool, and pashmema. There were also purses, jewelry, trinkets, and a few handicrafts. The prices (if you bargain) were really good. Since it was the first place we went I only bought one thing, but everywhere else we went has terrible. I am going to try and go back this week to buy many things. There is one thing in particular I wish I would have bought and I hope it is still there and that the price will have not gone up.
I hope we can find markets in other cities as good as Delhi Haat.
