Explanation:
The Red Fort is located in the city of Delhi in India. It has a great history as it was the main residence of Mughal emperors for nearly 200years (until 1857).
The red fort is the center of Delhi and it houses a large number of museums. Not only the accommodation for the emperors but also it was the center for Mughal state politics and for setting events that impact the region critically.
It is one of the oldest and famous monuments of Old Delhi, locally known as Lal Quila. On one side it faces the city with its wall standing about 33 meters tall and stands 18 meters tall on the riverside, facing the Yamuna. The structure was listed as one of World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2007.
Historically, it marked an important era, the shift, and concentration of power to Delhi. It was built in 1648 by Shahjahan. The construction actually started in 1638-39 when the Mughal ruler Shahjahan decided to shift his capital from Agra to Delhi. It was originally known as Qila-I-Mubarak or the Blessed Fort as it was the residence of Shahjahan and his royal family. Every year on August the 15th, since India got its independence from British Raj in 1947, Red Fort hosts Independence Day celebrations. The Prime Minister of India hoists the national flag above the Lahore Gate of Red Fort and addresses the nation.
