Agra Fort is a fort located in Agra, a
city in the north of India. It was built in the 16th century and owned
by the Mughal Empire. The third Mughal emperor Akbar commissioned the
building of an enormous castle, with a circumference as long as 2.5km.
It is known for its two-layered castle wall, made from red sandstone,
and is sometimes called "The Red Fort." In contrast to its heavy
exterior walls, many of the buildings inside the fort feature white
marble, giving a luxurious and refined impression. Agra Fort was
registered as a World Heritage Site in 1993. This craft is a model of
one of Agra Fort's gates: Amar Singh Gate.
