The Tale of The Imperial Red Fort 🐉

Founded by Emperor Shah Jahan through 10 years of construction, this fort boasts a 18-meter tall wall, which was used as a fortress for an army during the First War of Independence. It is rumoured to have had the decapitated bodies of prisoners built into its foundations for good luck. After the British Army destroyed the inner buildings and gardens, it now consists of 5 museums to reflect on the history and educate about the past events. #india #delhi #fort #travel
