We wore our socks off looking at Harayman's tomb, Lodi Park and Safdarjang's Tomb but perhaps the strangest thing was at the national museum; they have a shrine containing relics of the Lord Buddha. It is srrounded by exhotations not to leave offerings but a group of buddhists solemnly conducted a ceremony , ringing bells, processing, genuflecting and chanting. Then when they'd finished they took off their robes, put them in their backpacks and started taking photos. not something you see everyday at the British Museum
