Book review
By tradition, Indraprastha, the capital of the Pandava heroes, is identified with Delhi, which is the capital of modern India. Relics found in Delhi indicate that this historic city was associated with the Maurya, Shunga, Shaka-Kushana, Gupta, Rajput and Sultanate periods. For centuries together, Delhi has been built, inhabited, destroyed and deserted - only to be rebuilt and inhabited all over again. Delhi represents a kaleidoscope of architectural design and style that reflects its fascinating and glorious past, that few capitals in the world can boast of.
