Red Fort


Shannon and Dave and I went to a place called Red Fort today in “Old Delhi,” an area of the city very different than the “New Delhi” that the British built. The Red Fort was originally the palace of the Mogul emperors, some set of Indian rules in the distant past. It’s a nice place to visit, but all in all I don’t recall all that much spectacular about it. Here's a picture of the main gate, and one from the inside.

I'll go into details about old Delhi in later posts, but the best description I've heard about the main market area called Chandini Chowk is that its like the Cairo market scenes in Indian Jones.
