    If you’re looking for a quieter slot, aim for about 10 am. The early morning light is nice for photos, and the heat is still mild. After the Minar, walk to the Iron Pillar, then to the Alai Darwaza, and finish with a stroll through the Mehrauli Archaeological Park. If you need a quick break, Hotel Pluto’s is only a couple of kilometres away.
