Red Fort

The Red Fort is an amazing fort built by the Mughals in the 1700’s. The Mughals are most famous for the Taj Mahal but they built many other things such as the Red Fort and Humayan’s Tomb both located in Delhi. The empire at its height was a contemporary of Louis XIV of France but had nearly 10 times the wealth of Louis XIV. Needless to say, the fort was amazingly ornate.
