The Red Fort

The Red Fort is one of Delhi's icons.  Last visit, we were not able to go inside.  But today we could.

It was the home of the last mughal of Delhi - the one now buried in Yangon where he was exiled.  After he left, the Brits moved in.  They tore down a lot of the internal structures, but kept some. 

Here are the pics.

Entrance.  Decor is very reminiscent of what we saw in Iran, except it was painted (here) and not tiled.
Mughal era building.
Audience chamber.


Shah's seat.
