Built in 1648, Delhi's Red Fort was the royal palace of several Indian emperors. The Fort contains much Indian art and history and is of national importance. Parts of the Fort served as an Indian military base until recently.
The Red Fort is considered the height of Indo-Islamic architecture. Its layout is designed to emulate the Qur'an's deceptions of paradise. Marble pavilions are decorated with carvings and semi precious stones. The majesty of this royal fortress stands testament to the rich history of India.
