Red Fort

Red Fort is located in Delhi, India. The red stone castle was commissioned by Shah Jahan and built from 1637-47. The structure has a mix of Islamic, Persian, and Timurid architecture and served as a royal residence of the Mughal emperors from 1648-1857. The private apartments have rows of pavilions connected by a water channel. The Red Fort Complex walls stand 75 feet and encloses palaces, entertainment halls, balconies, baths, indoor canals, elaborate gardens, and an ornate mosque. The interior was plundered by the 9th emperor, who removed the silver ceiling in the fort to raise money and replaced the ceiling with copper. In 1803, the British occupied the fort and built their residence within the fort. The structure spans over 254 acres, but nearly 66 percent of the structures within the fort were destroyed or badly damaged. The Red Fort serves as a celebration place for Indian independence. It became a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2007. Red Fort has three museums.
