Red Fort

I absolutely loved the place! Spread over acres, the monument is a must visit. With the beautiful gardens and the grandeur of the halls, the pathways, the market inside...you need a whole day to entirely have a visit around. We even went to the architectural exhibition 'Biennele' which was like a cherry on top. With so many paintings, artifacts displayed around, you really feel proud of the country you are living in...!

An old city to visit.

It's beyond stunning 🥰 In love with every corner... the rich architechtural design, the air, the vibrant colour....everything was exquisite. Do visit this place..you have to pay Rs. 50 for entry fee...and if you wanted to visit the inside museum, you will have to pay extra Rs. 30. There are many small shop inside the fort where you can buy lots of beautiful showpiece.

It's an exceptional place for satisfying your inner call to experience our old Mugal era culture, Indian history and freedom struggle.

Obviously the experience can't be narrated by the words, just go and experience it.......
Note: Avoid weekends because of heavy crowd. Don't forget to visit the museums. Have ample time to explore everything with the breaks and bring something to boost your energy because the campus is toooo big to explore fully.

a huge fort complex with a set of astonishing, beautiful buildings inside. there are signs in front of the majority of buildings explaining what the building was about and the events happening there. it is a very informative and inspiring experience. as the fort showcases the wealth and ingenuity of mughal empire. definitely worth a visit when in Delhi.

Great monument to see in Delhi. First place you can go to see if you are in Delhi. Prefer going at evening for best atmosphere. Entry fee is there. Can book tickets outside by scanning qr code to avoid waiting. Bags are not allowed inside so you have to submit at the entry. Once you enter the Fort. Inside its beautiful to watch the small city and get lost into that era. Inside you can see some museums for which different tickets are there. It will take 2 hrs to explore all the red fort from inside. As it is one of the important monument it is always crowded

Be prepared to be amazed.
Lovely gardens, well-kept, massive restoration work has brought back the splendor; not suitable for people with disabilities as you have to walk a lot. Cafeteria facilities are also basic

The Red Fort has the following good looks:
* Stunning Mughal Architecture: The Red Fort is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its impressive red sandstone walls, intricate carvings, and beautiful palaces.
* Rich History: The fort was built in the 17th century by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan and served as the seat of Mughal power for nearly 200 years. It also showcases the freedom struggle of India and how it got its independence
* Great for All Ages: With its spacious grounds, interesting museums, and shops selling souvenirs and handicrafts, the Red Fort is a great place to visit for people of all ages. There's even a light and sound show in the evenings that brings the fort's history to life.

Walking through the massive gates and exploring the various pavilions and courtyards, I couldn't help but admire the intricate details and craftsmanship of the Mughal architecture.

The serene atmosphere within the fort's walls provides a welcome escape from the bustling city outside. It's a great spot to learn about India's rich history and take in panoramic views of Old Delhi.

Overall, the Red Fort offers a serene and enriching experience for visitors interested in history and culture. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in Delhi. 🕌🇮🇳

The architecture of the fort is very good. The prices of the products in the market inside the fort are good. It is beautiful in the evening when lights are turned on. Only downside is that you either have to walk a lot to reach it or wait in line for the rides.

Way beyond what I expected … the government have done so much to make this place worth visiting … security is v tight … kept v clean … toilets are also clean . Food options are good and also nice shopping area with good quality stuff …. I am highly impressed with the way history or Red Fort is depicted using modern technology and videos

Red Fort.
One of the most important fact that mostly people don't know is that actually first time flag 🚩 hoisting was done on 16th April 1947 but after that every year it is done on 15th August.
The entry is from gate number 2 at the time when I posted this. The entry is from the Lahori Gate that used to be entry for peasants at the mughal time.
It took almost 9 years to built this city as Red Fort from 1939 to 1948.
It's a weekday and this place is too crowded. At the start, there is Chatta Market that is the first market with roof on the top of shops as it was named.

Afsana museum is must go but the charges is ₹150 per person but there are other museums that are maintained by Govt. The art gallery is must to be watched and that is the last on the places to visit in the Red Fort.

There are many more places but can't mention everything here as I need to recall and mention very difficult names like 'Diwan-e-khas' & many more like this! 😊

I came to visit 1st time red fort and found a lot of historical things and sawa question in mind of people who came here, it must surely come to mind how to make this big fort so compliment as it is so beautiful. We are proud when we visit such historical palace)))). If you get a chance to visit people, then visit and enjoy it.

Very good place to visit and knowing the history of Indian subcontinent. The architecture is also wonderful. Well maintained and clean. Don't miss the show when you visit this place. I visited this place at 5-Oct-23. Three are two shows, one starts from 7:15 PM in Hindi and another starts from 8:15 PM in English. I enjoyed the English one. The structure looks beautiful in lighting. Thanks to the management to make it attractive to the visitors

This fort extensive a huge area. If someone use delhi metro then they can choose the 'Lal Qila' or Jama Masjid station. But the Jama Masjid metro station is more close to the entrance gate of Red Fort. The closing time shows 6 pm, but ticket counters deny to provide ticket after 5- 5:20 pm. I reached at 5:20 pm, didn't get the ticket to enter inside the fort. So, I just visit from outside. On Monday the fort remains closed.

The Red Fort is a mesmerizing historical gem. From its grand architecture to insightful plaques, the visit was both awe-inspiring and educational. Reasonable ticket prices, smooth entry, and cleanliness make it a must-visit cultural destination. Highly recommended!

One of the most visited place in Delhi Tour. Pre Booking of Tickets online is muat to cut your time. Be prepared to walk almost 3-4 kilometres if you want to explore this place fully. The parking and the entrance gate is alome 1.5 kilometres far. The place has 3 Entey Gates but only one gate is for tourists. Had learnt that this place was once used as Jail by the Britishers. But worth visiting for the rich History of this place. Also it has small local shops in it for a quick Shopping.

Red Fort is a big, historic fort with beautiful red buildings. It's a great place to visit and learn about history. The buildings are impressive, and there's a lot of open space.

It was built by the Mughals a long time ago. The architecture is remarkable, showcasing a blend of Mughal, Persian, Timurid, and Indian styles. The grand structures are made of red sandstone, contributing to their distinctive appearance. Intricate carvings, domes, and ornate details adorn the buildings, reflecting the artistic richness of the Mughal era.

If you like history, you'll enjoy checking it out!

The glory of Red Fort at night is remarkable.

If you are in Delhi or visiting, make sure to keep the Red Fort, known as the Laal Qila, on your must visit list.

The fort is majestic and one of the most iconic places in India, steeped in Indian culture and history.

A good time to visit will be during the afternoon second half on a weekday if possible, as it will be less crowded compared to weekends. You will get ample time to roam around and soak in the history and grandeur of the place.

There is a fantastic light and sound show in the evenings, with multiple time slots. Some are in hindi and some are in English. It's an amazing show with about 50 performers, along with a play of light, sound and storytelling that will take you on a ride of the past till the present. You will get goosebumps during the show.

The Meena Bazaar is open till about 5pm i think, but please check the fort viewing timings as well as the light and sound show timings online.

A must visit place for kids too.

There is a dedicated parking for the fort and e-rickshaws are available from there that will take you till the main gate of the fort, in case you do not wish to walk the roughly 2km distance.

Also, its a good idea to hire a guide if you want to really know more. Do visit and enjoy.

One of the tourist attractions of Delhi and its Nice place to visit, it was crowded when we had been here. You can book tickets online so that u need not wait in the long queue. Definitely a must visit place when you’re in Delhi.
