Exploring Crazy Delhi

This video follows a vlogger on a chaotic but exciting first day in Delhi, India.

Finding a New Hotel

The video starts with the vlogger checking out of their first hotel because it’s fully booked.

They move to a new hotel called Hotel City Star, which looks a bit worse than the pictures online, but the room itself seems nice and clean.

Heading to the Red Fort

The vlogger wants to explore Delhi and decides to walk to the Red Fort, the main attraction in the city.

They also plan to walk through Old Delhi, a fascinating area known for its hustle and bustle.

Since it’s Sunday, the streets are a bit calmer than usual, but it’s still chaotic. The vlogger mentions feeling overwhelmed by the poverty in the area.

Tuk-Tuk Ride and Missed Entrance

The hot and humid weather convinces the vlogger to take a tuk-tuk instead of walking all the way to the Red Fort.

They discover it’s an electric scooter, which they find cool.

They reach the Red Fort but realize they’re on the wrong side to enter and have to walk all the way back.

They notice very few foreigners around.

Change of Plans

The vlogger learns there’s a special ceremony or festival happening, making it difficult to access the fort.

They decide it’s too hot to wait in line and give up on entering the Red Fort for that day.

Exploring Old Delhi

The vlogger hails another tuk-tuk and heads to Old Delhi. They bargain with the driver over the fare and learn this is a common practice in India.

They see a street market bustling with activity and decide to try a street food omelet.

Challenges and Interactions

The vlogger chats with a bicycle taxi driver who hasn’t been able to work much due to lockdowns caused by the pandemic.

They witness a police officer stopping the driver for parking his bicycle in an unauthorized spot.

Diwali Preparations

The vlogger notices decorations being sold on the streets and learns that Diwali, the festival of lights, is approaching. They buy fresh orange juice from a vendor.

Cartagena Path

The video ends with the vlogger walking along the massive Cartagenia Path, which leads to India Gate on one end and the President’s residence on the other.

They describe the path as a special place where thousands of people come to walk and enjoy the atmosphere, especially during sunset.

Looking Ahead

The vlogger thanks the viewers for joining them on this first day in Delhi and promises upcoming videos chronicling a road trip to explore other amazing places in India.
