The Red fort at Delhi is one of the massive forts in India and is a
witness to the heyday of the Mughal Empire. Shah Jahan built the Red
fort as the citadel of Shahjahanabad, his new capital at Delhi.
The Lal
Quila or the Red fort rises above a wide dry moat in the northeast
corner of the city of Shahjahanabad. Red fort’s walls extend from two
kilometers and differ in height from 18 meters on the river side to 33
meters on the city side. Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan started the
construction of the Red fort in 1638 and it was completed by 1648. The
Red fort contains all the paraphernalia of the Mughal government- halls
of public and private audience (Diwan-i-am and Diwan-i-khas), domed and
arched marble palaces, plush private apartments, a mosque (Moti Masjid)
and richly designed gardens. Though the Red fort had to face the wrath
of Nadir Shah in 1739 and the British soldiers during the revolt of
1857, it still remains an impressive testimony to the Mughal splendor
and might.http://infinitelinkz.com/red-fort/
The whole architecture is very beautiful built. It is the beautiful
epidome of MUGHAL ART. The whole architecture is beautifully designed.
The main entrance of the Red fort opens at the Chatta Chowk, a covered
street bordered with arched cells that used to house Delhi’s most
talented jewellers, carpet makers, weavers and goldsmiths. This covered
passage was also known as the Meena Bazaar, the shopping centre for the
ladies of the court. The Naubat Khana or the Drum House is situated a
little away from the Chatta Chowk. The musicians used to play for the
emperor from the Naubat Khana and the arrival of princes and royalty was
heralded from here. The Red Fort also has the Diwan-i-Am (the Hall of
Public Audiences).
