HERITAGE
‘Heritage’ may be defined as “those things which are inherited and provide cultural identity and continuity, or a link with the past”. Heritage is conventionally divided into natural and cultural. In cultural, it is further sub-divided into tangible and intangible. Delhi, the capital city of India, boasts a rich heritage that spans several centuries. The four zones identified by INTACH and UNESCO India for World Heritage status in Delhi are Mehrauli, Shahjahanabad, Lutyen’s Delhi and Nizamuddin. Delhi's built heritage, customs and traditions and distinctive ethos are all a matter of pride not just because they possess 'Outstanding Human Value' but also because they signify to Delhi enthusiasts that this concrete jungle of today is also a repository of history, faith and continuity.
