Delhi
Forts & Monuments
The Red Fort, with a circumference of over 2.2 kilometers, was
laid out by the banks of the Yamuna river in the 17th century.
The Mughal emperor Shajahan built it with the ambition of concentrating
the Mughal power in one monument. Monument is perhaps not the
right word. A mini-city is more like it.
