New Embassy In India A cultural triumph for America is the opening of the new U.S. embassy in New Delhi. An ultra-modern structure embodying traditional elements of Hindu architecture, it is regarded as a modern masterpiece. One of the most beautiful as well as one of the most functional new structures yet to be developed. U.S. ambassador (?) and wife (?) shake hands with guests including Prime Minister Nehru. Exteriors and interiors of the building.
