New Delhi is India’s capital city and has been the capital of many ancient Indian empires. Built in the 1920s, “new” Delhi is distinguished by its wide, tree-lined boulevards reminiscent of its colonial British roots, while the “old” Delhi sector is a street maze full of markets, historical architecture and monuments. New Delhi is also a booming financial marketplace, with large industries in information technology, telecommunications, tourism, banking and the hospitality sector. New Delhi lies in northern India in the Gangetic Plains and gets a good dousing every year between July and August during the infamous South Asian monsoons season.
