This video is based on my Agra Fort tour(आगरा किला वीडियो) in which I have told Agra Fort history in hindi(आगरा किला का इतिहास). Located at a walking distance from Agra Fort railway station(आगरा किला रेलवे स्टेशन), and with a distance of 2.5 kms from Agra Fort to Taj Mahal, it is known to be one of the biggest mughal monument in India(आगरा का किला दिखाइए). A lot of people want to know about Agra Fort history in telugu and Agra Fort history in Malayalam, but as I dont know these languages so I have told agra ka kila history in hindi. Agra Fort ticket price is Rs.50, which can be bought at the counters of Agra ka lal kila. People coming by train can catch Agra Fort train till Agra Fort station(आगरा किला स्टेशन) and visit this Agra ka kila Akbar ka(आगरा का किला दिखाओ). Some people also refer it to as agra ka kila jodha akbar ka because Jodha Bai also stayed here with him.
Akbar started building this fort(agra ka kila kisne banwaya tha/आगरा किला किसने बनवाया था) in 1565 and completed it in 1573. There are a lot of palaces inside this beautiful fort(आगरा का किला कैसा है).

The Agra Fort is known to be a historical fort in Agra,UP and also called Agra's Red Fort. Mughal emperor Humayun was known to be crowned at this historic fort. It was later renovated by the great Mughal emperor Akbar from the year 1565 till 1573. It used to serve as the main residence of the Mughal rulers until the year 1638, when the mughal capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. It was also called "Lal-Qila" or "Qila-i-Akbari". Before it was captured by British, the last Indian rulers who could occupy it were the Marathas. In the year 1983, the Agra fort was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its importance in the Mughal Era. It is located at about 2.5 km northwest of world famous monument, the Taj Mahal. The fort can be described more accurately as a walled city. It was known to be renovated later by Shah Jahan.
Like the remaining Agra, Agra Fort prior's history before Mahmud Ghaznavi's invasion is quite unclear. However, it is said that in 15th century, the Chauhan Rajputs occupied it. After that, Agra became the capital of Sikandar Lodi (AD 1487-1517) when he shifted his capital from Delhi to Agra and constructed a lot of buildings in the already existing fort at Agra. After the Panipat's first battle (AD 1526) Mughals captured Agra fort and ruled from this place. In the year 1530, Humayun was crowned in it. The Agra fort was got its present appearance during the reign of Akbar (AD 1556-1605). Later this fort was known to be under the rule of Jats of Bharatpur for almost 13 years.
This 94-acre fort has a semicircular plan, its chord actually lies parallel to Yamuna river and its walls are known to be seventy feet high. Double ramparts are known to have massive circular bastions at intervals, with battlements, embrasures, machicolations as well as string courses. There are 4 gates that were provided on its four sides, one is known as Khizri gate that opens on to the river. Two of the fort's most important gates are: the "Delhi Gate" and the "Lahore Gate." The Lahore Gate is also known as the "Amar Singh Gate," named after Shah Jahan's commander Amar Singh Rathore.
Delhi Gate that faces the city on the fort's western, is considered to be the grandest of the four gates and is known to be a masterpiece of Akbar's time. It was built in the year 1568 for enhancing security as well as it was the king's formal gate, and this is why it includes features related to both. It is embellished and made with intricate inlay work in white marble. In those times, a wooden drawbridge was used to cross the moat and for reaching the gate from the mainland; inside, an inner gateway known as Hathi Pol ("Elephant Gate") - which was guarded by two life-sized stone elephants with their riders that added another layer of security.
