Taj Mahal Hotel

Taj Mahal Hotel

• The Taj Mahal Hotel on Number One Mansingh Road, New Delhi is one of the most distinguished addresses in the national capital. Located in the exclusive residential area of LutyensÂ’ Delhi, close to the seat of government, The Taj Mahal Hotel reflects the heritage of Mughal Delhi. Graceful architecture blends aesthetically with modern facilities. The hotel is a city landmark, centrally located, in close proximity to key areas.
  

• The Taj Mahal Hotel is a 40-minute drive from the international airport and minutes away from the bustling city center, Connaught Place, Pragati Maidan, Government offices and Diplomatic missions . The warm, pristine white lobby of The Taj woven with designs reminiscent of Mughal architecture, intricate motifs, golden inlay work, nicheÂ’s from ‘ShahjahanabadÂ’, the erstwhile mogul capital, all add a sense of timelessness to the interiors. The intricacy of the art and design work of the domes and panels in the lobby are perfectly complimented with the calm marble fountain streams. The Taj Mahal Hotel is a veritable showcase of artifacts and art of the era. The hotel’s most recent introduction has been the Grande Presidential Suite. Every detail in this suite has been perfected to host Heads of State and global business leaders.

• Mumbai (formerly know as Bombay) is the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. As it is popularly know as “Jadu Ki Nagri” (meaning “the land of Magic”), Mumbai is a magical collection of seven islands on the Konkan coastline, which over time were joined to form the island city of Bombay. The city has an estimated metropolitan population of 17 million (2005), making it one of the largest cities in the world.
• Mumbai is spread over an area of about 437 sq. kms that means….? Yes! You guessed it right. There are people, people and more people where ever you turn. Nevertheless you can find a good transport infrastructure in Mumbai.
• You can travel around the city on taxis which are prompt and their charges are pretty nominal as well. But the taxis operate only in certain parts of the city, autorickshaws ply in the areas where taxis are not allowed to. The autorickshaws drivers are very polite and the charges are reasonable also.

Surat Diamond

• Surat: The diamond industry in Surat has bounced back but traders face a peculiar problem. They are now short staffed because of all the workers they laid off a few months ago.

• The election was marked by blame game over the downturn in Surat's diamond industry. But the reality now is quite different. Diamond trader Prakash Badmecha is faced with a peculiar problem. Ten months ago, he was forced to lay off workers, due to dropping demand, but now orders are pouring in, and Prakash is finding it difficult to find workers.

• "This crisis is different. There is a lot of work, but shortage of workers. We are willing to pay more to hire them," said the diamond industrialist.
• Surat's diamond polishing units wore a deserted look just a few months back. Now, at least 30 per cent of them have started functioning again. But a sizable chunk of the four lakh workers who were laid off earlier, have not returned, as they have found jobs elsewhere.

Surat is known for its spice, silk and diamond trade. It is the leading diamond polishing industry of India. Diamond cutting has a history of over 100 years now and after a 100 years, it was confirmed that a whopping 92% of world’s diamonds were cut in Surat and that gave India a lot of revenue. Now the Surat diamond cutters are eyeing the bigger diamonds and are expanding from small pieces. Though Surat had to go through a lot of natural disasters in past few years, like floods each year, earthquakes and even Plague, but there is a go-get-it attitude in Surat people to keep on moving ahead in life- that’s what is probably keeping it as an economic powerhouse of India. Even the international bodies like UN are aware of the growth rate of Surat, at an alarming 400% and UN has termed it as the “Fastest Growing City of the World”.

Sandstone at night...

The Red Fort in Delhi at night - all lit up just before the sound and light show that takes us through the life of the fort, and parallelly the life of Mughal Delhi over the last few centuries... Built of sandstone (which gives it the name) by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan between 1638 and 1648, the Red Fort today plays host to the Prime Minister and the national flag on Indepedence day...

I couldn't see much of the fort since it was shut by the time we reached - so detailed photographs will have to wait till I make the next trip to Delhi... But here is more on the beautiful fort from the ever-dependable
