Raisina Hill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Raisina Hill is the most prized estate in Edwin Lutyens' Delhi. The Rashtrapati Bhavan, India's Presidential palace, stands tall at Raisina Hill, flanked by the Secretariat building housing the Indian Prime Minister's Office and several other important ministeries. Other important buildings and structures situated near the Raisina Hill includes the Parliament of India, the Rajpath, the Vijay Chowk and the India Gate.
Raisina Hill has a very gory connection. During Taimur Lame's invasion, his forces were camped on the Raisina Hill area from where they murdered over a 100000 delhi residents over a week of raiding.
