'Lutyens' Delhi' is an area in Delhi, specifically New Delhi, India, named after the leading British architect Edwin Lutyens (1869–1944), who was responsible for much of the architectural design and building here at the time when the British Empire still existed.
Lutyens laid out the central administrative area of the city. At the heart of the city was the impressive Rashtrapati Bhawan, formerly known as Viceroy's House, located on the top of Raisina Hill. The Rajpath, also known as King's Way, connects the India Gate to the Rashtrapati Bhawan. The Secretariat, which houses various ministries of the Government of India, are beside the Rashtrapati Bhawan. The Parliament House, designed by Herbert Baker, is located on the Sansad Marg, running parallel with the Rajpath.
