Whenever we think of our Dilwalo ki Dilli, what always comes first to our mind? Of course, Delhi Metro, right?
Delhi Metro was launched just 20 years ago but since then, it has become the heart and soul of the capital. With 9 colour-coded metro lines, this public transport is used by more than 1 million people every day. Yes, after COVID as well!
But among all these metro lines, we have our eye on the Pink Line of Delhi Metro. Why?
Pink Line is almost 59 km long and connects Majlis Park in northwest Delhi to Shiv Vihar in northeast Delhi. Not only the Pink Line is the longest route of Delhi Metro with 38 stations, but this U-shaped network has some of the most notable spots to spend a day exploring some of Delhi's best offerings.
From clothes paradise Sarojini Nagar market to the most famous food spot Satya Niketan, you can have delicious meals, pamper yourself with shopping therapy, and not to forget, indulge in some amazing sightseeing while travelling on this metro line.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s take a look!
