Why go
This route is for visitors drawn to Delhi’s civic buildings and a contrasting moment of living faith. Begin with the Secretariat exterior and move toward Rashtrapati Bhavan, allowing time to appreciate the scale and symmetry of the government precinct. Continue to Gurudwara Bangla Sahib for the prayer hall and community setting, respecting the site’s dress and head-covering customs. The three essential stops fit comfortably into one day with walking time between them. Connaught Place is an optional final stroll if energy remains. Entry to Rashtrapati Bhavan depends on its current visitor arrangements, so confirm access before planning an interior visit.
