By adding public facilities like benches, lampposts, and covered seating places, the Delhi government plans to improve the surrounding areas of various famous landmarks throughout the city, such as the Red Fort, Lotus Temple, and Qutub Minar.
By enhancing these heritage areas' accessibility, friendliness, and comfort, the project seeks to enhance visitors' overall experience. Improved walkability, traffic sign installation, and encroachment removal are further aspects of the facelift.
Delhi Tourism Minister Kapil Mishra said, "We are working closely with officials from the tourism department to transform the areas around Red Fort, Qutub Minar and Lotus Temple into more walkable and pleasant spaces."
The government is also preparing to start a campaign to brand the city. Mishra stated that a new slogan for Delhi will be unveiled and that an agency will be chosen soon for the project. Three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, many stepwells (baolis), and numerous lesser-known structures are among the 174 heritage and tourist attractions in Delhi. The government intends to raise awareness of these historical riches by refocusing on tourism.
