    If you’re aiming for a quieter visit, try arriving around 10 am. The first wave of tourists has usually left, and the heat is still manageable. After the Minar, a short walk takes you to the Iron Pillar and then the Quwwat ul Islam Mosque. From there, you can stroll through the Mehrauli Archaeological Park and finish near the Lotus Temple. If you need a quick break, Hotel Pluto’s is only about two kilometres away.
