Delhi International Airport

I've taken two international flights in the last 6 weeks and have gotten to know the Delhi airport pretty well. In addition to the usual duty free stores and overpriced coffee shops it has some...unusual features.

For example, there is a live sitar player and band!


Also, you can get your palm read for a very reasonable price. 
 

Coffee is not such a big thing in India yet, so the airport coffee shops need to try a little harder to attract customers. (And who am I to pass up a free tasting?)


And of course, there is the giant metallic Buddha head.


Of course, perhaps none of this compares to the Amsterdam Airport, where I recently spent a grand total of 12 hours. The only thing that made the layovers bearable? The Amsterdam Airport is the only one I know of with a dedicated cheese counter. Frequent fliers, take note.
