The resulting blend is an intriguing and captivating melting pot of architecture, languages, cultures and traditions.As with all of India, Delhi is a constant assault on the senses - all of them, for most of the time. Brave the heat, noise, smells and endless crowds of people and traffic to discover the hidden wonders of this great metropolis.From incredible monuments, inspirational museums and performance spaces, great shopping and a newly emerging restaurant scene that gives a fresh take on the traditional curry with added wider influences from around the world.&nbsp;<h2>Gay Scene</h2>For what remains a deeply conservative culture, it is only the largest and the most metropolitan of Indian cities such as Delhi that have anything remotely resembling a gay scene as travelers from the West would know it.There is now an emerging gay scene in Delhi - with a small but growing number of <a title="New Delhi gay scene" href="https://www.travelgay.com/gay-new-delhi/">gay and gay-friendly venues</a>, together with queer festivals and events.<h5><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-67652" src="https://static.travelgay.com/media/68131/india-gate-new-delhi.jpg" alt="india-gate-new-delhi" width="100%" />India Gate </h5><h2></h2><h2>Getting to New Delhi</h2>Indira Gandhi International Airport has been transformed beyond recognition into a world-class major global hub facility, especially since the opening of Terminal 3 in 2010, and is a far cry from the ‘culture shock on landing' of the original airport which was our first impression of India back in the early 1980’s.The airport is now linked to central New Delhi by The Delhi Airport Metro Express (DAME) with a journey time of 20 minutes and a fare of Rs150. The line operates from 5am to 11pm.For arrivals outside the operating hours of the train link, your best option is to take a taxi, ensuring you purchase a ticket from the prepaid booths in the international terminal. Look out for the booth run by Delhi Police and use this one if you can. An average fare to the city centre should be around Rs 200-300.&nbsp;<h2>Getting around New Delhi</h2>Your best option to get around this vast city is without question the new, clean and efficient Delhi Metro. The network is still growing, and currently has six colour-coded lines (including the Airport Express) which extend to all main districts of the city.For just a couple of daily trips, your best option is to buy individual journey tokens of between Rs 8-30. If you are planning more than four longer journeys on the Metro per day, then invest in a tourist card for unlimited daily travel for Rs100 / 3 days Rs 250.The best bus option is the Hop On Hop Off service provided by Delhi Tourism - a modern fleet of air-conditioned buses with English-speaking guides which link over 20 major tourist attractions. This service doesn’t operate on Mondays though as many venues are closed.For a more traditional trip around the city, take a black and yellow liveried old Ambassador taxi. There is also now a radio taxi service of much newer cars which can be booked in advance.For short local trips, travel like a local in an auto or cycle rickshaw.&nbsp;<h2>LGBT+ Resources in New Delhi</h2><a href="http://gaysifamily.com/">The Gay Desi</a> is a good resource for LGBT+ travelers in New Delhi. It's a nationwide publication covering all aspects of gay life in India. Our <a href="https://www.travelgay.com/new-delhi-other-gay-businesses/">New Delhi Services</a> page covers various gay and gay-friendly venues. <a href="https://www.travelgay.com/new-delhi-other-gay-businesses/">Gaylaxy Magazine</a> is a useful online resource for gay New Delhi.
