The Ruins
Delhi is full of ruins, not all of them historic. Sure, you'll pass ancient Mughal mosques crumbling on a hill, but you'll also find large buildings torn down due to Delhi's constantly and abruptly shifting zoning laws (see photo above). Also, old abandoned houses with gutted windows and trees growing inside; or half-built and broken structures that are now inhabited by whoever sets up shop and stays... like the "restaurant" pictured below. It's actually, literally, a hole in the wall eatery called "Madras Cafe", which serves up fresh, open-air, South Indian food.

That sure gives a new meaning to the concept of a hole-in-the-wall eatery! Wow.
