The Jama Masjid Mosque was built between 1650 and 1656 as part of a grand scheme by Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan, to establish Shajahanabad, a new capital city in Delhi. The large open-air mosque, constructed from sandstone and marble, covers an area of 4200 m2 and is the largest mosque of the Mughal Empire. Since its construction, the same family have managed the mosque and the imams who preach there. During this episode we discover the symbolic Old Delhi monument that, from sunrise to sunset, sees thousands of worshippers and visitors gather to pray, or simply to walk around the site.
