Visited the Mosque today. Learned about some very interesting things.
Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib was the best Indian poet of all time. He was born in Agra in 1797. Today our tour guide told us the most interesting thing about Ghalib. He spent most of his money buying wine to get drunk so in that way he was able to write poems!!!
In the busy street of Delhi something beautiful is growing..!!! Resilience.
Today we visited the biggest mosque in India. It is truly a thing of beauty. We talked to a couple of people in the mosque about what they know about the mosque and their purpose there. Our tour guide told us about the history of India and the great kings of India– the colonization and division of India. Then after that, we left and went to the palace and learned about the construction of the buildings and their purpose in the ruling of India.
Hello 360+ family. I wanna share our day. Today I felt very happy, we visited old Delhi and we saw great construction’s of Mughal emperor such as RedFort and Jama Mosque by Shahjahan. Those constructions represent traditional way of Mughal’s style and their significance. We visited some parts of Delhi namely Dariba Kalan, Kinari Bazaar, Chandini Chowk, Townhall. These areas are looking good but those areas have lots of pollution and crowd. We visited a well named “ugrasen ki baoli”, it looks good and we saw the way of storage water in a well and we took lots of pics.
We had group discussion at evening about our expectations regarding trip and what we learnt from these completed days and we had lots of fun.
