Exquisite white marble architecture and carvings of the Musamman Burj, at the Red Fort Agra - a UNESCO World Heritage site. Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India


Agra Fort is a historical fort in the city of Agra in India. It was the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. Before capture by the British, the last Indian rulers to have occupied it were the Marathas. In 1983, the Agra fort has been inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage site. It is about km northwest of its more famous sister monument, the Taj Mahal. The fort can be more accurately described as a walled city.
