This magnificent mosque in Old Delhi is India's largest, with a courtyard that can accommodate 25,000 worshipers. It was started in 1644 and completed in 1648 as Shah Javan's final architectural extravagance after the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort. Three enormous gates, four towers, and two 40-meter-high minarets made of red sandstone and white marble adorn the immensely ornate mosque. At the northern gate, travelers can rent robes.

Following the death of his wife, Mughal emperor Shah decided to relocate his capital from Agra to Delhi, establishing Shahjahanabad as a walled city. Following him, it remained the capital of the Mughal, and it evolved into what we now know as Old Delhi. The Jama Masjid was chosen to be the future city's principal mosque. The mosque, planned by architect Us tad Khalil and built by more than 5000 artisans under the supervision of Saadullah Khan, took 6 years to complete.
At the request of the emperor, the mosque was inaugurated on July 23, 1656, by Swayed Abdul Ghafoor Shah Bukharin, a mullah from Bukhara (now Uzbekistan), who was given the title Shah Imam and assigned to the high post. The mosque's construction cost a stunning 1 million rupees at the time. The mosque includes various Islamic sacred artifacts, including an ancient Quran transcript printed on deer leather, the Holy Prophet Mohammad's footmarks, sandals, and a red beard hair.
RED FORT: LA LL QI LA

The huge Red Fort (LA LL QI LA), with its red sandstone walls, rises 33 meters above the clamor of Old Delhi as a reminder of the Mughal rulers' great strength and splendor. The walls, which were erected in 1638 to keep out attackers, are today mostly used to keep out the city's noise and Chat ta Chow k, a bazaar selling tourist goods, has a domed arcade that leads into the massive fort courtyard. The Drum House, the Hall of Public Audiences, the white marble Hall of Private Audiences, the Pearl Mosque, Royal Baths, and the Palace of Color are just a few of the structures inside. Because of the red sandstone fabric of its rampart walls, this palace fortification is known as the Red Fort.
In 1648, the fort was completed, complete with halls, palaces, pavilions, and tranquil gardens. Many fairy tale buildings can be found within the red fort's enclosure. The Red Fort's two most renowned monuments are the Di wan I K has, also known as Shah MA HAL, and the Rang MA HAL, also known as IMTSSA MA HAL or Palace of Distinctions. The Red Fort's Hall of Public Audience is another well-known structure. The Red Fort has always hosted shows detailing the history of the Mughal Empire in India, outlining their splendor and the events that led to their destruction.

HUMAYUN’S TOMB: DORMITORY OF THE MUGHAL
Humayun's Tomb, one of Delhi's ancient jewels, is a notable landmark for several reasons. This magnificent mausoleum is the first Mughal emperor's tomb to be constructed in India. However, it became the final resting place for more than 150 Mughal family members over time. This beautiful mausoleum is also the resting place of Emperor Shah's son D Ara, Humayun's two wives, and later Mughal emperors. It is a fine example of Persian architecture that served as a template for Mughal architecture. Humayun's Tomb has numerous stories to tell, from being a beautiful 16th-century tomb to being a refugee camp following India's partition in 1947. The Tomb of Humayun offers a lot of interesting elements. At the time, it was most likely the largest tomb on the Indian subcontinent. The tomb is built on an elevated platform with up to 56 cells or small chambers on each of its four sides. It is a 'garden-tomb and a traditional char bag, which is a four-quadrant garden with four water channels representing Quranic paradise. The tomb is smack dab in the heart of this 30-acre landscape.
