0:00Listen to this.

0:01Do you hear that?

0:03Claxons all over the place.

0:05That's the noise of India, look at an ape. a monkey climbing on the wires.

0:10[Music]

¿Dónde está Delhi -India?

0:25Friends today we are going to take a tour of one of the most chaotic cities in the world.

0:32That's right, we are on an adventure in India, great videos are coming and of course

0:37we have to start in its iconic, chaotic capital, the city of Delhi.

0:43This is not my first time in this city so I know more or less what I'm talking about.

0:49and believe me this city is as fascinating as it is busy and chaotic.

0:55Noise everywhere, people are all over each other, in the same street you find

1:02with a motorcycle, a person walking, a tuk-tuk, a cow and behind a Ferrari or a Lamborghini,

1:08contrasts are like in few places in the world, and above all the most important,

1:14the culture that is breathed in the streets, is like in very few places.

1:19Before we start here are some very interesting facts about India. Did you know

1:24that today India could be the most populated country in the world with a estimated

Datos sobre la India

1:30population of 1.4 billion people, it is about to overtake China or maybe it has already done so because

1:37official record as you say so to the letter as it does not exist, the official currency

1:42is the rupee which at the date I recorded this video is about 82 rupees to the US dollar,

1:48see Gandhi the world icon, we don't have to explain who this man is, he is in every

1:53banknotes in all denominations of Indian rupees, very nice banknotes

1:58and they are tiny, some of them look like little Monopoly notes

2:02And also as of the date that I'm recording this video there are 17 recognized languages

2:08in the subcontinent of India, this is very interesting.

2:12And the thing is that because there are so many people in this country they have too many languages that are officially spoken

2:18the most common being Hindi, Punjabi, Kashmiri and Bengali and interestingly enough one of the most

2:24most spoken language is Rajasthani but it is not recognized by the government, in fact

2:30it's a whole social issue with a very big impact, because in the region of Rajasthan there are more than

2:3580 million people and to have their language recognized is like wtf, omg, let's hope that

2:42someday soon there will be 18 official languages recognized.

2:46Well, enough context about the fascinating country in which we are about to embark,

2:52let's begin our journey through Delhi, a city of more than 26 million habitants,

2:58omg the chaos, the noise, the traditions and culture everywhere await us.

3:03Let's go for it!

3:04(Music)

Transportes típicos

3:15Well there's so much to see in this city that we're just going to walk around

3:18and commenting things.

3:20See this type of transport is called "Rickshaw". Which are like tricycles and it's very cheap to move around in this.

3:27The most typical ones, the most traditional ones are like this, someone is mechanically pedaling,

3:32although there are others that work with scooters or motorcycles,

3:36I've had a ride that takes about 15 minutes and they charge you 100 rupees, a little bit more than

3:43a dollar, really cheap.

Vendedores ambulantes

3:45See this is also very good these stalls here sell water, you can ask for it

3:49with lemon or just the water alone and check out, this is the small glass of purified water so drinkable

3:56they sell it to you for two rupees less than 2 cents and if you want a disposable cup you can buy it for

4:01one rupee more, one rupee extra, if not you drink it in a glass cup and right here you drink it.

4:06Here's another one that is like condensed milk, it's sweet, it's very tasty,

4:11they sell it for a little less than a dollar a cup. And look, they put your pistachio, your petals, its very tasty

4:18The amount of street food here in India really is enough, look at these stalls

4:23really very tasty, very tasty.

4:25This is the famous Chai Masala tea, I like how they prepare it like this in the street,

4:30that is boiling and the truth is very tasty eh it is very very tasty in this trip

4:34I promise that I am not going to stay with the desire to make the video of Luisillo el Gordillo,

4:39street food video for India yes or yes, last time I missed it this time

4:43it's going to happen, look I like how all of a sudden you see clothes lying around, so somebody said "Well

4:49here I leave my pants drying" what a level of trust level of trust so that they don't steal it in a

4:53city so affluent, and yes that's a curious thing about a city curious of a city like Delhi that in spite of its

4:58of being very big, the truth is that it does not enter in a scale of dangerous city.

5:03Let's see obviously you have to be careful your phone that they are not going to take it out of you for

5:06there, but as such being robbed at gunpoint is not a very armed robbery is not a very common case.

5:11See here my brother changes the sole of your shoes. your shoes, here he offers you a rickshaw ride,

5:17see we arrive to the main street here of the old part of Delhi that is called Chandni

5:22Chowk, and yes, check the truth is that if you have to go around that you have to go dodging because look if it is not a

5:26person it's a car and if it's not one of these tricycles and if you don't get the scooter, by

5:32here the motorcycle in which the whole family travels, see that five on a motorcycle, you're looking at

5:37that omg five people on a moped, yeah you have to go carefully to cross the

5:43streets that you don't know what's going to run you over.

5:46[Music]

Famoso mercado

5:55See this is very commonly seen in these streets, bridal stores for brides, for brides.

6:00and the truth is the prices are very good and look how nice they are. how beautiful they are, a suit like that with everything and

6:04turban they sell it to you in 5500 rupees that are about 70 dollars something like that, the truth

6:10it's a good offer.

6:11And in this market you can really find everything, this is a market of the 17th century, it's

6:17quite old and if you find, for example that if you find the street of the dresses, the street,

6:22the street of food, the street of jewelry, the street of what you can imagine, here's for Rachel

6:27and all that one, this other street dish it's called bread and patassi that you see basically

6:32they take the masita they dip it in hot sauce and let's go and people love it.

6:38Informal trade of whatever you can imagine carteritas, scissors, more bags, flowers.

6:45is this?

6:46Ah they are cucumbers, a very peculiar cucumber like elongated, long and skinny, they eat it with a little salt, this is

6:53another one is also spicy, here we have signs for door, check this that they sell here,

Caca de vaca para festividades

6:58this is cow poop, this is cow excrement, this is cow excrement this because they burn it for certain festivities,

7:04in fact right now on the date that I am visiting there is visiting there is a celebration called Holly

7:09I'm sure it's very nice the truth is it's divine, we are going we are going to be making a special video of that

7:13festivity, and yes there are colors all over the place the flowers and the cow poop that burns,

7:18if these streets are Ugh if you don't like big cities I'll say big cities I will say that they are overwhelming

7:23but if you're a city boy it's paradise and yes now the traffic has really broken down here.

Cruzar las calles es extremo

7:28on the street, we're going to have to walk like the the locals, see so between the cheeks,

7:34we go dodging because yes something happened here, something happened up ahead that has stopped all

7:39the situation and really see if you leave but little space for one to pass, you have to

7:44to be on your toes.

7:46Who knows what happened here that collapsed the whole system like they can't agree,

7:51because the ones coming from there is the same sense that the ones that come from here then

7:56Nobody is really moving forward, they have been standing like this for some and they have been stopped like this for a few minutes and no one is moving forward.

8:01A large part of the street is being blocked by the sacks of spices that are arriving

8:06here, of materials, etcetera.

8:08How is this going to unfold eh and the people there see, there are people that walking see

8:17how many sacks they are transporting, it is something impressive that brother, see how much merchandise he is carrying

8:22and if everything here is slowed down, well here my friend also carries a lot, very good, look

8:29I'm really amazed and it's just a matter of it's just a matter of walking around here

8:35and we see the wagons, we see the trucks, we see the motorcycles, we see the tricycles, we see the

8:41the bicycles, yes the traffic collapsed here.

8:44And well time to cross to the other side of the street. the street, let the game begin once again,

8:48oh no what a drama, this crossing is going to be tough, it's going to be tough, come on, come on, this way we cross over

8:54Here you have to look for little holes of little holes to go through, here there is a

8:58hole, here's a hole so here we get between the wagons we get between the wagons, ready mission

9:04successfully completed, some people there singing, making, music, dancing, yes.

9:09it's very joyful as well as it's very chaotic actually the truth, is that it is very happy and the people

9:14it's like very nice and they like tourists, they are like very very open, very receptive,

Fruta sin moscas

9:20see what a clever method of the fruit sellers fruit sellers put incense, this is for two,,,.

9:25things one for the scent and two to scare away flies which is a problem in the streets,

9:30a good fly swatter so they don't get to your fruit. very smart fruit eh, if there is any

9:34fruit seller is watching this, apply it, the smoke scares away the insects [Music].

9:51We took one of these tricycles, the strength in the legs of this gentleman is impressive

9:56because the two of us are coming, so let's see we are not so heavy but not so light

10:01we are and more the structure, they have legs metal legs these carnal, chaos ensued

10:07Here the one with the motorcycle wanted to get in, we have we have to dodge the one on the motorcycle, look what a scum!

10:11my brother.

10:12And it is that they pass walking like this, the brother and the burger is already leaving, they walk like this between

10:20the carts then the traffic is armed here of tricycles.

Instalaciones de luz peligrosas

10:24Hey and omg the wires in this city are another level, let's see I've seen cable systems.

10:33chaotic, in fact in the city where I live it's not like we have the best system of

10:38cables but here they take it to another level, check this out, look at this hose line there that

10:44is tangled up there, look at an ape, an ape, a monkey climbing up the cables, what an image look at this.

10:50there is the monkey climbing over there, sometime I saw something I had the chance to see something, well the truth is

10:55ugly here in India, and that is that a little changuito was crossing just like this and got electrocuted.

11:02Well, yes, because obviously the lighting system is so chaotic so chaotic, just imagine the scenario, like this.

11:06of "Young man my light broke down young man I want to change my cable I want to change my cable server" don't make it up

11:13how are we going to find your cable, good luck with that we'll solve it in 15 minutes.

11:18days.

11:19Listen to this, you hear that?

11:22Honking all over the place.

11:24Is that the noise from India or what?

11:25Here there are horns everywhere and even more so when you're on a big you are in a big street with traffic of

11:31true it is "pi pi pi pi pi pi" traffic but all over the everywhere, they do not forgive and they live with it, the

11:37traffic is like a warning that I'm going to pass there. I'm going to pee all over the place.

11:42In India in general they love sweets, this is one of the most famous stores in India.

No les gusta formarse

11:47the center and see how chaotic it is to buy your real sweets, people don't like it

11:52to line up it's like "I'm here I want that candy give it to me" and candy give it to me" and in general not at all

11:58more in India on this side of the world in many cities they don't like to cities they don't really like to train you

12:04you are trained, even at the airport people get in from here, the queues do not

12:09are very much in people's favor.

12:11Crossing these streets is a situation, you have you have to go dodging, you graduate at the intersection of

12:19street once you approve to cross the streets of Delhi.

12:28[Music] Hey but in all of the chaos it's important to give us our little breath, it has

Templo Qutab Minar

12:39this city has very magical, very mystical places, for example right now we are in Qutab Minar

12:44it's called a great construction, in fact it's a in fact it is a UNESCO world heritage site,

12:48of more than 70 stories high, it took more than 170 years to more than 170 years to do it all and it speaks to us

12:54a little bit about the heritage of Islam that might be in be in India because yes, all of this

12:59is a Muslim structure from around the years 1000 to 1200, is that they would have even

13:05Muslim rulers and if this site is really really is very beautiful, very good to photograph,

13:10to take a breath and back to chaos.

13:14[Music]

Pan masala, sustancia adictiva

13:24Check out this guy here for 50 rupees, like half a dollar he sells you the masala bread,

13:29this one we have already tested in the channel, basically is a leaf that is called bread and they put lime on it.

13:34among other things, they put a thing that is called a pickle called pickle which is like to get the flavor.

13:39and they put tobacco in it and this basically people chew it all day long. people chew all day long.

13:43We've tried it before and it gives you a kind of blows your mind a little bit,

13:48people here love it, I really don't like neither the taste nor the effect I like, this something

13:52that it has is that it makes your teeth red then it is quite normal to see in the streets

13:57red spots, all of a sudden because people spit and spit and spit spit and spit and spit and spit, for me the flavor

14:02is very strong, I don't like it but people love it and it's very people love it and it's very cheap.

14:06Look how red everything is, I'm going to spit, it is quite normal that in the streets is all

14:11red because people actually eat and spit, so that's why the streets of India are

14:17red and that's why it's normal to see people like me who have red mouths and teeth, so it is normal to see

14:22red, yes it is a very common vice, not recommended at all. not recommended at all.

14:26See what a curious artifact this is here, it's made out of brick clay so that you can get

Piedra quita callos

14:31you can carve the soles of your feet, the corns because yeah let's see it's no mystery here in

14:36India you see a lot of people walking barefooted on the street.

14:41So they do get some calluses but tremendous, so with this one brick for

14:48the callus of the foot [Music]
