About the Event

Near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16th-century Mughal monument known as the Red Fort of Agra. Built in the year 1573 under the reign of Akbar, the Agra Fort is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.


This powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. Keep an eye out for the fairy-tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas; and two very beautiful mosques.


Also known as Qila-e-Akbari, the fort served as a residence for the Mughal royalty until 1638 after which the royal house moved to the Red Fort in Shahjahanabad, now known as Old Delhi, famous for its grotty, nostalgia-stoking lanes.
