Red Fort, Agra

The Taj Mahal dominates Agra so much that you may be forgive to skip visiting the magnificient Red Fort at Agra. Its construction was begun by Akbar in 1565 when he was only 23. This is the biggest Mughal Fort in India. It was from here that the deposed and ailing Shah Jahan watched Taj Mahal down the Yamuna river. When i arrived at the Red Fort, Agra, I was jaded after two days of shooting the Taj Mahal. It is a big fort and it needs just more than a cursory walk in it.
