Dear Diary,
My summer vacations are going on and I am enjoying them a lot.
I went to my grandmother’s house and spent good days there.
I ate a lot of mangoes and played hide and seek with other children.
I feel I am blessed to have such a big family that makes this summer vacation good and exciting.
Yours lovingly,
Vinay

Dear diary,
This summer vacations, I visited a historical city, Delhi for a week. It was an adventurous and exciting experience. We went to Delhi by train wherein, we first went to our grandparent's house and then we rested for a few hours. Delhi has been known by different names during different periods. In an ancient period it was known as Indraprastha, medieval times it was known as Tughlaqabad. In Delhi, there are many monuments which are known for its history.
There is the Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Humayun Tomb, Jantar Mantar and Qutub Minar which makes the Delhi rich is history and glorious past of India is narrated through these monuments. Whereas, there are many wonders of modern time such as Rashtrapati Bhawan, parliament, Lotus temple and so forth.
Delhi's landmark is Red Fort which is built on the bank of Yamuna River. Shahjahan built the red fort, wherein he had a meeting with the public in one of its portion. Also, in modern time the prime minister of India hosts the flag of India at the red fort on every independence day.
Another major landmark of Delhi is India Gate which was built in the memory of soldiers who lost their lives during the first world war. India Gate is extended into the greater area and has become the picnic spot for people and tourists. Lastly, Delhi has become a major tourist attraction point as it is developed with the metro rails, museums, and center of shopping. Visiting Delhi was a very fascinating experience.
