Bharat Mandapam
Located within the Pragati Maidan complex, this is a large-scale convention center used for international exhibitions and diplomatic events. Travelers visit the site to see the modern architectural design and the facilities built for the 2023 G20 Summit. It serves as a hub for trade fairs and cultural showcases in the city.
Getting There
The venue is accessible from central Delhi via the Delhi Metro, which is the most efficient way to avoid city traffic. Depending on your starting point in the city center, the journey typically takes 20 to 40 minutes.
