Well, you can't visit Delhi without noting your presence at India Gate. It's a war memorial near Kartavya Path (formerly known as Rajpath) on the eastern edge of New Delhi. It connotes the memory of 80,000 soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the First World War and is featured in almost all Delhi-based films. The space was recently redeveloped and makes for a perfect picnic spot to enjoy with friends and family. Also, the experience is incomplete if you don’t enjoy an ice cream!
