Metro
Hi
How is the metro system in Dehli? Is it easy to use and run well? I think we are living a bit out from the "center" in Dehli, but after viewing maps it looks like we have a metro near the hotel somewhere. But is it worth using? Thanks for all help. |

It's brilliant! Also, they have a really good website which explains everything.
 Oh, a word of warning, make sure you're looking at maps of the existing metro, it's being extended and as maps are labelled with titles such as "Phase 2", it's not always clear whether what you're looking at has been built yet!

Our hotel is at L-13, Kalkaji, and it´s placed on the map around a phase 2 line. Too bad. Thanks for your help though. |

Metro doesnot go to every place in delhi and its pretty limited till now... i would advise you to use new green buses started by delhi govt... they are great and have a car like comfort... i prefer them much more then metro...
