Geography & terrain

Gurugram lies in Haryana, 30 km south-west of Delhi — the satellite city of the NCR, its towers and the malls set on the plains beside the Delhi–Jaipur highway.

History & culture

The city's name runs with the legend of Guru Dronacharya — the village of Gurugram of the Mahabharata, with the old settlement's story and the modern city's growth from the 1970s as the NCR's business hub; the city's transformation into the corporate capital of the region, with its Cyber City and the luxury malls, gives Gurugram its modern character, and the old village's heritage remains on the fringe.
