5.  The Red Fort was the residence of the Mughal emperor of India for
nearly 200 years, until 1857. It is located in the centre of Delhi and
houses a number of museums. In addition to accommodating the
emperors and their households, it was the ceremonial and political
centre of Mughal government and the setting for events critically
impacting the region.
 The Red Fort, constructed by Shah Jahan, was built as the fortified
palace of Shahjahanabad, capital of the fifth Mughal Emperor Shah
Jahan, in 1648. Named for its massive enclosing walls of red
sandstone, it is adjacent to the older Salimgarh Fort, built by Islam
Shah Suri in 1546. The imperial apartments consist of a row of
pavilions, connected by a water channel known as the Stream of
Paradise (Nahr-i-Behisht). The Red Fort is considered to represent the
zenith of Mughal creativity under Shah Jahan. Although the palace
was planned according to Islamic prototypes, each pavilion contains
architectural elements typical of Mughal buildings, reflecting a fusion
of Timurid, Persian and Hindu traditions. The Red Fort’s innovative
architectural style, including its garden design, influenced later
buildings and gardens in
Delhi, Rajasthan, Punjab, Kashmir, Braj,Rohilkhand and
elsewhere. With the Salimgarh Fort, it was designated a UNESCO
World Heritage Site in 2007 as part of the Red Fort Complex.

71. Yog Maya Temple
• Yogmaya Temple also known as Jogmaya temple, is an
ancient Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Yogmaya, the sister
of Krishna, and situated in Mehrauli, New Delhi, close to the Qutb
complex. It is widely believed to be one of the five surviving
temples from the Mahabharata period in Delhi. According to local
priests this is one of those 27 temples destroyed by Ghazni and
later by Mamluks and it is the only surviving temple belonging to
pre-sultanate period which is still in use. Rajput King Hemu
reconstructed the temple and brought back the temple from
ruins. During Aurangzeb's reign a rectangular hall was added to
the temple which is a witness of a failed attempt by Mughals to
convert this ancient temple into a mosque which was later turned
into a store room for Devi's vastra. Though its original(200-
300B.C.) architecture could never be reformed after its
deconstruction but its reconstruction had been carried out
repetitively by the locals. Yogmaya or Jogmaya is considered, an
aspect of Maya, the illusionary power of God. The temple is also
venue of a large congregation of devotees during
the Navratri celebrations.

iron, which serves to protect it from the effects of the
