Greater Noida

Greater Noida is a city with wide roads, numbered sectors, and green spaces on systematically planned urban land in Gautam Buddh Nagar district. The streets run straight, residential blocks follow a grid, and parks alternate with business districts and industrial zones.

The local development authority founded this city in 1991 to relieve pressure on Delhi and promote industry. Over the following decades, companies, housing projects, and educational institutions arrived, gradually transforming the land into a populated center.

Several universities, including Shiv Nadar and Bennett, bring students from across India to the area. The presence of technical colleges and arts institutions gives many neighborhoods a youthful character in daily life.

The Noida-Greater Noida Expressway links the city to New Delhi, and the metro offers additional options for getting around. Visitors using public transport should check which line runs to the desired sector, as numbered districts are spread across the area.

The Buddh International Circuit is a racing track that hosted the Formula One Indian Grand Prix from 2011 to 2013. Other motorsport events take place there now, and the facility remains a draw for racing enthusiasts in the region.
