If you only visit one museum this is the place to head for. An amazing collection of contemporary and historical crafts from all over India. The highlight is the Crafts Demonstration Area, where award-winning artists from all over India come to demonstrate and sell their pieces to visitors.

If you want to escape the hustle bustle of Delhi, this is a great place to go and maybe buy some artwork as well. Around 20 artists' workshops surround a central grassy courtyard with large trees and places to sit. You can watch the artists at work, or simply enjoy this enclave of peace and quiet, with a tea from the local chaiwallah.

Wander along the narrow streets of the bustling Walled City (Shahjahanabad) before escaping the rush by entering the sandstone and white marble edifice of the Jama Masjid, India's biggest mosque. Dress appropriately as it is still a working mosque.
