Agra Fort is a huge compound, similar to a walled city, covering 380,000 square metres with a high double thickness wall all the way around. There are four grand gates in this wall the most impressive of which, the Delhi Gate, is the most photographed part of Agra Fort. Inside the wall is an eclectic mix of royal palaces and more utilitarian buildings such soldier’s barracks, kitchens and other facilities which would have been needed to service a fort of this size. Agra Fort was built at a turbulent time in India’s history when regional rulers were constantly fighting each other for control of Agra and the surrounding area. The fort was constructed not as a palace but as a military installation designed to serve as a defensive position during invasion attempts. The intricate architecture and stunning artwork is a surprising and notable addition to a structure built for war. This is one of the main things that makes Agra Fort so special.
