Delhi, India

The Red Fort is a historic fort located in Delhi, India, and is one of the country's most famous landmarks.

It was built between 1638 and 1648 by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan when he moved his capital from Agra to Delhi. Made primarily of red sandstone, the fort is known for its impressive architecture, grand gates, beautiful halls, and a blend of Persian, Timurid, and Indian design styles. The Red Fort served as the main residence of the Mughal emperors for nearly 200 years and played an important role in India's history.
