Gezicht op Chandni Chowk in Shahjahanabad, Delhi, India, Samuel Bourne, 1865 - 1870 Canvas Print
Chandni Chowk is the main street of Shahjahanabad, the last of Delhi's seven historic cities. Along the way are shops and artisans sell their wares. The street was built in 1650 by Jahanara Begum, the daughter of Emperor Shah Jahan, and connected the city with their fortified palace, The Red Fort. The street was 36 meters wide (40 yards) and 1.3 kilometers long (1520 yards). Originally there was a canal along the road to provide the fort with drinking water and irrigation. Between 1840 and the 1860s, the canal was muffled by the British. The recording shows a raised ledge where the canal once ran.
