Description
Begin your adventure at Jama Masjid, where you’ll receive a pattern card with six tiny shapes: diamond, half-arc, star cut, swirl, broken stripe, and grain-dot. Your task is to find any two of these patterns in the mosque’s carvings, flooring, shadows, or railing shapes. Learn how Mughal architects encoded rhythm into stone and how to “read” a building like a pattern book.
Next, head to a hidden alley behind the mosque, where sunlight cuts through the walls, forming a geometric stripe. Stand in the stripe, watch how the line shifts in 60 seconds, and learn how Old Delhi lanes form an accidental “sundial network.”
Continue to Sunehri Masjid, where you’ll explore triangles instead of talking about Mughal rulers. Find small triangular niches in the internal structure, triangle shadows cast by parapets, and triangle shapes formed by collapsed plaster patches. Complete a mini challenge to find three triangles, each made from different materials (stone, shadow, and paint-erosion).
Near Chawri Bazaar, discover a forgotten, tiny stone staircase stuck between two shops. Place your hand on the top step and describe how the stone temperature changes — a sensory “time marker.”
Next, visit a tiny lane where brass workers carve spirals on bowls. Capture a “spiral trio” — three spirals from different sources, including metal bowls, wall doodles, drain covers, and tangled electrical wires.
Finally, head to a quiet residential pocket near Hauz Qazi, where you’ll find a half-circle doorway no longer usable. Sit here for a 2-minute reflection pause and think about what circles exist in your own life that aren’t complete and what this half-shape reminds you of.
Back near Jama Masjid, combine all your found shapes into a simple artistic map, including the triangles of Sunehri Masjid, spirals of the brass alley, stripes of the shadow lane, half-circle plaza, and textures from the old steps. Leave with a handmade artistic map, not a souvenir bought anywhere.
