New Delhi, Aug 11 (SocialNews.XYZ) Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta launched four new tourism circuits at the Akshardham Temple on Tuesday.
The event, attended by dignitaries and eminent citizens, comes as an important initiative in establishing the national capital's spiritual and cultural heritage as a global tourism hub, while enabling the tourists to experience the city's rich religious and historical heritage as part of a single journey.
The four new circuits launched by Delhi government's Tourism Department connects prominent mandirs and other religious sites in the national capital with historical and cultural landmarks that have so far received relatively less attention on the tourism map.
As part of promotional campaign, a couple of social media influencers and YouTubers will be taken on tours of these routes, following which videos, reels, and photographs will also be shared on social media.
It was in February 2026 that Delhi government had launched four heritage-cultural circuits titled "Dilli Ki Dharohar", "Dilli Ka Dil Aur Virasat", "Dilli Ka Rahasya", and "Dilli Dekho Dil Se".
The state government believes that the popularity of these circuits will boost economic opportunities for local guides, transport operators, restaurants, shopkeepers, and other small businesses, while also encouraging tourists to spend more time in Delhi.
The event, titled the "Spiritual and Heritage Tourism Conclave 2026", was organised by the Delhi government's Tourism Department, which also saw participation of Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev.
During the conclave event, a special "Heritage Walk" was also organised within the Akshardham complex, in which participants learned about the finer details of Delhi's cultural and architectural heritage.
Notably, Akshardham Temple stands as one of the most vivid examples of Delhi's spiritual and architectural heritage.
Recognised by Guinness World Records as the "world's largest comprehensive Hindu mandir, the mandir showcases India's thousands of years of cultural and architectural heritage and its high ideals to visitors from across the world".
Mahant Swami Maharaj, the spiritual head of the BAPS organisation -- which has built Delhi's Akshardham along with more than 1,800 temples and spiritual centres worldwide, offered prayers for everyone's progress, good health, and righteous living.
