A long, long time ago, about 350 years ago, a powerful emperor named Shah Jahan decided to build a new capital city. He wanted it to be grand and beautiful, so he built a magnificent fort called the Red Fort. This is where the emperors lived!

Old Delhi grew around this amazing fort, becoming a center for trade and royal life. It was like building a brand new playground and everyone wanted to play there!

Old Delhi is a place where millions of people live, work, and play! It's one of the most crowded places on Earth. Imagine a school bus filled with 50 kids – now imagine millions of those buses all packed together! People here love to eat delicious food, shop in busy markets, and visit beautiful old buildings. There are so many different kinds of people, all living and working together.

People in Old Delhi are super busy! Many people work in the busy markets, selling everything from colorful clothes to yummy spices. Others work in small workshops, making things by hand. There are also lots of people who work in restaurants and food stalls, cooking amazing Indian food. It's a place where everyone has a job to do, making the city buzz with activity all day long!
