vacation in Delhi?? - naaahhh..!!!

Boyyy!!!...Delhi...."NO COUNTRY FOR...SINGLE MEN!!"....
Thats true...in case u r a single man,who wishes to live every part of d lyf a city is famous for??..Delhi is just not a place u wud like to be!!
.....Now d story....
Well, i'v been living in Delhi for abt a month . Thought i'd be holidaying around and wud be living thru all,wat dis capital city is famous for - d heritage, d wine-'n'-dine, d metro travel,...and last but actually d most important...d nite lyf!!
But,everythng crumbled one-by-one as i finally realised dat dis was not wat i dreamt of!!
>THE HERITAGE - I just dont get wat amusing do ppl find in Red Fort??...i askd myself-is dis actually a fort??..may b d feeling arose as i hav been living in a city which has a fort dat is uncomparable in its glory, beauty and evry oder aspect...its Mehrangarh Fort, Jodhpur. above all, its a FORT - for god's sake!!
So, HERITAGE is out!!
>WINE-'N'-DINE - Who pays Rs. 200 for a beer actually worth Rs 40??..m sure DELHIites do.
Is it negligence towards value for money..or...the unstoppable loot of d apparently glamourous lyf providers. Ppl r ready to crave out dere last penny just for d sake of show-off....yes, dat is show-off...for sure!! only thng i dont understand is ...WHY???
So, I'd better "drink and eat" rather than "WINE-'N'-DINE"
>METRO TRAVEL - mmmm...well why to blurp about everythng!!..dis was d best and d most transparent part i found in Delhi.for sure a convenient and quick mode of travel..giving ppl atleast one less reason to worry about!!
And y only metro?..even d local bus travel ensures u connectivity across d city!!..ofcourse..adjustment required in dis case :)
>THE NITE LYF - coming bak to "No country for...single men"!!
D nite lyf in Delhi is indeed deep dreamt...but in case u r single - my friend,not all dreams come true!!..U ought to patao some chhori who can get u into d places u hav listed as "places to go before i die"...not only dat,d same chhori throws out an impression of ur haal and maal...so u hav to b choosy and smart....I m a trainee at both!! :(

Hope dis proves meaningful for d readers!!

    dude, u seem to be having a seriously bad time here, or perhaps, u want ppl to think so...

    on the heritage front, who d hell asked u to go to red fort. u really wana check out some heritage sites in del, try to get a close look at the rashtrapati bhavan, or the parliament, or at least stand at the india gate, n u will be in awe!!!

    wine n dine, check out the streets of chandni chowk, best food u wud have ever eaten, at rock bottom prices.

    delhi indeed would deliver all that it promises, but all you need to do is look at the right places...coz one things for sure, it will throw a lot more bad things at you than good, the art is in avoiding the bad, n checking out the good ones (chicks included!!!)

    @ Geek in the lab...
    wat u said...i totally agree!!
    but d fact remains al d bad parts come from places most desired to visit...how da hell r u supposed to avoid places where u wanna go actually???
    and, wen i said..eat and drink is more preferred over wine 'n' dine, i actually meant dose places in d heart of delhi!!
    but thanx a load for ur comment...m sure it'l prove beneficial..
    :)
