Red Fort |
|
|
The red sandstone walls of Lal Qila, the Red Fort, extend for two kms and
vary in height from 18 metres on the river side to 33 metres on the city
side. Shah Jahan started construction of the massive fort in 1638 and it
was completed in 1648. Before he could move his capital from Agra to
Shahjahanabad in Delhi, he was deposed and imprisoned in Agra Fort by his
son Aurangzeb.
