    Shahjahanabad was created by the builder of the Taj Mahal as the capital of the Mughal Empire, with the Red Fort as the central point and Jama Masjid as the main mosque. The walled city was separated from the outside land and divided into neighborhoods called mahallas and katras, which formed cultural and socio-economic communities within the city. There was little open communal space other than for worship at the Jama Masjid, as residential and commercial areas were tightly packed with narrow streets and alleys between them.

    SHAHJAHANBAD

    The living legacy of Delhi is Shahjahanabad. The city was created by the builder of Taj Mahal,, with the Red Fort as the focal point and Jama Masjid as the praying centre, . The city was separated from the surrounding land by a wall and a moat. Passing through the citys gates marked the passage from one domination to another. The main thoroughfares , the secondary roads and the bazaars were public space .Communal open space was conspicuously absent as it is so today. There was not much need for communal open space, other than for worship which is why the Jami Masjid was provided with a spacious courtyard. The urban community is formed districts or wards, known as mahallas and katras. These homogeneous units also define cultural as well as socio-economic activities. There were 36 mahallas in the walled city. Each katra had an enclosed space created between residential and commercial buildings having entry to a katra made through a gate
