New Delhi in India<\/a> is one of the largest cities in the world \u2013 which means that getting around while you\u2019re there can be a bit tricky.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sure, you can use a ride-sharing app like Uber, or take an auto rickshaw, but because there\u2019s so much traffic, those rides can take forever<\/em>, which is why taking the Delhi Metro may be your best bet. Bonus: Hopping on the metro is also a great way to get to know the city, and it\u2019ll save you money, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here\u2019s everything you need to know about the Indian capital\u2019s public transit system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Brief History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For starters, the metro system in Delhi<\/a> is still relatively new. One of the most important facts about it is that it\u2019s the first railway system in the entire world to get a United Nations certification for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This is huge for Delhi, and, as a result, locals are very proud of their metro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metro has eight main lines, divided by colour \u2013 red, yellow, blue, green, violet, magenta and pink \u2013 plus an eighth one, the orange line, that goes directly to the airport. There are around 184 metro stations in total, both underground and above ground \u2013 but they\u2019re all air-conditioned. That air conditioning factor certainly isn\u2019t as big a deal as the United Nations certification, but it\u2019s definitely up there, as Delhi heat<\/a> is no joke.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting Around<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you may expect from such a sprawling railway system, there are a couple of key rules and guidelines that you should know before you go. But don’t fret if you get overwhelmed, you can always lean on your local leader for support even when you head off for solo exploration<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buy a ticket (card or token) at the ticket counter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Generally speaking, tokens are best for one-way trips and cards are better if you are a frequent traveller. You can also purchase a Special Tourist Card, which gives you an unlimited number of rides for a limited amount of days. If you’re travelling with Intrepid, most transportation is already included, but you’ll need to get a ticket if you decide to take on the city solo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fare is not a set rate \u2013 it\u2019s based on where you\u2019re going<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Unlike cities like New York, which have a set rate for a subway ride no matter where you\u2019re going, the Delhi Metro charges you based on your distance travelled. To find out how much one ride costs, type in your departure and arrival stations here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If possible, try to avoid peak travel times<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The metro gets very, very crowded. Locals say that peak travel time in the morning is anywhere from 9 am to 12 pm, and in the evening, it\u2019s anytime from 6 pm to 8 pm. Of course, avoiding the metro during these times may not be possible, so if that\u2019s the case, just be prepared to be squished \u2013 and keep an eye on your bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each train has six to eight cars<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of these cars is reserved only for women. Although the metro system was opened in 2002, the women\u2019s-only car only opened in 2010, as a response to sexual harassment complaints. While India is generally a safe place to visit for women travellers<\/a>, additions like this allow you to travel with even more confidence and comfort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your bag will be scanned and weighed before you board <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every metro station has an X-Ray scanning machine to check your bag before you board and you’re not allowed to board at more than 35 stations if your bag weighs more than 15 kilograms. This rule has actually been in place since the metro opened, but it\u2019s only now that the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is actually enforcing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep these tips handy and you’ll be mastering the metro and train systems like a pro<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

You’re not allowed to eat on the train<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

That said, many stations have kiosks where you can buy coffee, tea and local snacks. Some of the stations even have entire food courts filled with popular local and international chains where you can buy full meals. (Hot tip: Go for local chains and pass on the international chains like Domino\u2019s… because you can do better than that.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the Delhi Metro to Get to Your Hotel from the Airport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Orange Line \u2013 which goes directly to the airport \u2013 runs from Terminal 3 and the new AeroCity hospitality precinct to New Delhi Metro Station (which is opposite the New Delhi Railway Station). Trains run nearly every 10 minutes, from around 5 am to 11:30 pm every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s not all. The DMRC opened a new magenta line that goes to the airport, too. While it\u2019s not an express train like the Orange Line, it still gives you even more airport-to-hotel options. The magenta line has 16 stations total \u2013 many of which interchange with other lines \u2013 and operates from Terminal 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Delhi Metro Stations for Sightseeing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the coolest parts about taking the Delhi Metro is that the metro itself is a sight to be seen. That said, you can also use it to get to other awesome tourist attractions, too. Riding a country’s rail system<\/a> is the best way to get to know about daily life and culture. Here are five solid stations that will place you right in the middle of the attraction action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Chandni Chowk on the yellow line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This brings you to Old Delhi, which is total chaos but a must-see and you can walk to the Red Fort from here. There\u2019s tons of street food<\/a> around as well, so be sure to sample some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Rajiv Chowk on the yellow and blue lines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you get off at this station, you\u2019ll be close to Connaught Place, the commercial business and financial hub of Delhi that has heaps of markets and stalls. This is where you go to get all of the Indian trinkets you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Hauz Khas on the yellow line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hauz Khas village is the hipster neighbourhood of Delhi. Expect to drink artisanal beer and quality coffee, visit artsy clothing and jewellery boutiques and stroll through colourful, graffiti-covered alleyways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Nehru Place on the violet line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s right by Lotus Temple, which is a house of worship constructed in the shape of a flower that\u2019s one of the most popular attractions in Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Central Secretariat, on the yellow and violet lines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>Get off here to be close to the Indira Gandhi Memorial, Lodhi Garden, India Gate, the Parliament House and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that you have all of the Delhi Metro information you need, go off and hop on that train. Your wallet \u2013 and your watch \u2013 will thank you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
