Red Fort

Just outside Lal Quila metro station, and a 20-minute walk from both Chandni Chowk and Jama Masjid metro stations.

The Red Fort, also known as Lal Qila, is a historic 17th-century Mughal fortress located in Old Delhi, India, built by Emperor Shah Jahan between 1638 and 1648. Named for its massive enclosing walls made of red sandstone, it served as the main residence and seat of power for Mughal emperors after Shah Jahan shifted his capital from Agra to Delhi.
