New Delhi Insider Tip

Use the Delhi Metro โ€” it's cheap, clean, AC, and covers every major sight. Auto-rickshaws should use meters but usually won't; agree on a price first.

Aizawl Insider Tip

Aizawl is built on a single ridge at 1,132 metres โ€” the city has no flat ground, no rickshaws, and no bicycles. Every street winds steeply and every view is a panorama of misty hills. The Durtlang Hills above the city give a 360ยฐ view of the entire ridge-city below. The Saturday market (Zaikhum) in the city centre is the social heart of the week โ€” everything from woven shawls to live fish is sold.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ New Delhi Fun Fact

Delhi has been continuously inhabited for over 5,000 years and has served as the capital of at least seven consecutive empires, giving it more historical layers than almost any city on Earth.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ Aizawl Fun Fact

Aizawl is the only state capital in India with no traffic lights โ€” the city is too hilly for them to be practical. Mizoram has India's highest literacy rate (91.3%) and lowest crime rate. The Mizo people have a tradition called 'Tlawmngaihna' โ€” an untranslatable concept of selfless service, hospitality, and putting others before oneself โ€” which functions as the unofficial moral code of Mizo society.
