Built in 1639 by Emperor Shah Jahan, this magnificent architectural marvel is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The photograph captures the imposing facade of the fortification made entirely out of red sandstone. Its intricate design and decorative elements reflect the rich Islamic heritage prevalent during that era. The entrance stands tall with an air of majesty, inviting visitors into its historical embrace.
