★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Red Fort ya Lal Quila is a historic fort in Old Delhi, India, that served as the main residence of the Mughals. Shah Jahan commissioned construction of the Red Fort on 12 May 1638, when he decided to shift his capital from Agra (UP) to Delhi. Originally red and white, its design is credited to architect Ustad Ahmad Lahori, who also constructed the Taj Mahal. The fort represents the peak in Mughal architecture under Shah Jahan, and combines Persianate palace architecture with Indian traditions.The fort lies along the Yamuna River, which fed the moats surrounding most of the walls.Construction began in the sacred Islamic month of Muharram, on 13 May 1638.Supervised by Shah Jahan, it was completed on 6 April 1648. Unlike other Mughal forts, the Red Fort's boundary walls are asymmetrical to contain the older Salimgarh Fort. The fortress-palace was a focal point of the city of Shahjahanabad, which is present-day Old Delhi. Shah Jahan's successor, Aurangzeb, added the Moti Masjid (Pearl Mosque) to the emperor's private quarters, constructing barbicans in front of the two main gates to make the entrance to the palace more circuitous.

Best time to visit on cloudy days.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was beautiful place and it almost take 2 hours to walk entire place .
I visit the museum within to learn more about each initiative and weapons used during that time. but spent 90 minutes walking around the grounds and still felt I could take longer.
where there a lot of maintain it amazingly! This landmark comprises a large complex full of multiple architectural structures with acres of well-kept gardens in between. It is all enclosed by a huge red wall, giving it its name.
It felt safe and the facilities are clean. Absolutely worth a visit! One of the greatest monuments of India and the walk around the place is so peaceful.
A must visit for relaxation and learning more about the history of Indian revolution of getting freedom. Great place to be opted for children to understand our history and explore this monument.
Also, they host lot of shops within the premises. During Indian Independence day the Indian flag is hoisted here.
We can go by bus , metro, taxi , auto.but I prefer metro , and the station was with in 50 metres and easy access without traffic .
