Begin your day with a pick-up from your hotel, setting the stage for an enlightening tour of Delhi's spiritual landmarks. Your private guide will provide insightful commentary as you journey through the city’s rich tapestry of Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian heritage.

Visit Akshardham Temple, a magnificent temple complex that stands as a testament to the grandeur of traditional Indian architecture. Constructed from salmon-colored sandstone and white marble, the temple features intricate carvings that depict a myriad of Hindu deities, saints, and mythical figures. The grand central monument, with its ornately decorated pillars and domes, offers a mesmerizing visual journey through Hindu mythology. The sprawling gardens, sacred waterway, and the musical fountain further enhance the temple's serene and majestic ambiance.

Explore Jama Masjid, the largest and one of the oldest mosques in India, commissioned by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in 1656. This architectural marvel is located in the bustling heart of Old Delhi and is distinguished by its grand red sandstone and white marble construction. The mosque boasts three grand gates, four towering minarets, and two 40-meter-high minarets. Its expansive courtyard can accommodate up to 25,000 worshippers. The mosque's design is a fine example of Mughal architecture, characterized by its large domes and elegant arches.

Discover St. James Church, an historic church built in 1836 by Colonel James Skinner, a prominent figure in British India. As one of Delhi's oldest churches, it reflects early colonial architectural styles with its Gothic features, including pointed arches, stained glass windows, and detailed woodwork. The church served as the primary place of worship for the British Viceroy until the Cathedral Church of the Redemption was constructed in 1931. Its serene ambiance and historical significance make it a noteworthy site on this spiritual tour.

Visit Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, the most prominent Sikh gurdwara in Delhi, known for its association with the eighth Sikh Guru, Guru Har Krishan. Originally constructed in 1783 by Sikh General Sardar Bhagel Singh, this gurdwara is renowned for its sacred pool, or "Sarovar," whose water is considered holy and believed to possess healing properties. The gurdwara features a large prayer hall, a community kitchen known as langar, and beautifully maintained gardens, providing a tranquil space for worship and reflection. The gurdwara’s architecture combines traditional Sikh design elements with a welcoming atmosphere.
