About the Book

The station of Dehli is reached by a short siding of the East India Railway from the terminus at Ghazjabad Junction, 'Which, crossing the Jamna by a fine girder-bridge, and passing through the old Fort of Salimgarh and a corner of ShahjahanV Red Castle," or Ldl Killd, lands the traveller in the neighbourhood of the Queen's Gardens. He will find several Hotels advertised, but the personnel, and therefore the administration, of Indian Hotels is always changing. There is also a.

In this area are comprised the traditional " seven castles and fifty-two gates" spoken of as far back as 1611 by the merchant Finch. To the North is the new city of Sbahjahan, which was not built in Finch's time.
