The nearby grass is running the world of squirrels, and the sky is flying in the world of birds. Today is Sunday, many Indians and relatives and friends have dinner, chat, and play on the grass. It is really pleasant! (No time to see the modern lotus temple) It is really taken by the airline! The first time I took its plane, it was 2 hours late when I came, and I fine-tuned the return time twice in advance. When I went to the airport to check in that night, I suddenly said that Guangzhou was foggy, and I postponed it from 23:45 to take off at 13:05 tomorrow. I was speechless!
This is a holy place for Indians to visit to commemorate Gandhi, the saint who was cremated here. The monument is a marble slab surrounded by flowers, next to the cremation of Gandhi. The atmosphere is quiet and different from the hustle and bustle of India. The environment is clean and tidy, even for a walk. It was a simple, well maintained attraction, great leader Gandhi was cremated here. In this quiet park, food is not allowed to enter, so there is no garbage here. The tilted walls around the center provide a view of the surroundings and a black marble monument. This is a lovely place to temporarily escape the hustle and bustle of Delhi and reflect on some of Gandhi's wisdom and teachings. The place is close to Smriti (his last home and where he was shot) and can easily visit both places at once. It's easy to get a taxi from the road at the entrance, and there's a cosy, cheap cafe and an ATM (though there was no cash in the ATM when we were there).

If you have the opportunity to travel to India, you must visit the Gandhi Mausoleum. The cemetery of Gandhi, the founding father of India, is solemn and receives the respect of Indians and foreign tourists. As some netizens say, this is a must-see place to visit India. There are two doors to enter and exit the cemetery, we went around the back door, although there is a shelf clearly marked free shoes, but the opposite duty to put the shoes at the person who beat the table hard shouting "dollar", not allowed us to put shoes, we turned back to the front door to enter.
It is a luxury to want to keep hygiene on the streets of New Delhi, full of cow dung, full of food tails eaten by cattle. So New Delhi is impossible to do well, a country where cattle can do whatever they want, how can humans manage cities? The cows alone are fine, and New Delhi has countless dogs that sleep, forage, and excretate lazily every day, and are "like entering the land of no one", the third animal to do whatever it takes.
